$A$ block of mass $M$ is kept on a platform which starts accelerating upwards from rest with a constant acceleration $a$. During the time interval $T$,the work done by the contact force on mass $M$ is

Two particles each of mass $m$ are moving in horizontal circles with the same angular speed $\omega$. If both strings are of the same length $l$,find the ratio of tension in the strings $\frac{T_1}{T_2}$.

Three blocks of masses $m_1, m_2$ and $m_3$ are connected by massless strings as shown on a frictionless table. They are pulled with a force $F = 40 \, N$. If $m_1 = 10 \, kg, m_2 = 6 \, kg$ and $m_3 = 4 \, kg$,the tension $T_2$ (between $m_1$ and $m_2$) will be ........ $N$.

$A$ block of mass $M$ is pulled along a horizontal frictionless surface by a rope of mass $m$. If a force $P$ is applied at the free end of the rope,the force exerted by the rope on the block will be

$A$ block of mass $M$ is placed on a horizontal surface and is tied with an inextensible string to a block of mass $m$,as shown in the figure. $A$ block of mass $m_0$ is also placed on $M$. If the surface between $M$ and $m_0$ has a coefficient of friction $\mu$,find the tension in the string,assuming the system moves together.

Two spheres $P$ and $Q$ of equal masses $m$ are attached to a string of total length $2\, m$ as shown in the figure. The string and the spheres are then whirled in a horizontal circle about $O$ at a constant angular velocity $\omega$. The distance $OP = 1\, m$ and $PQ = 1\, m$. What is the value of the ratio $\left( \frac{\text{Tension in the string between } P \text{ and } Q}{\text{Tension in the string between } O \text{ and } P} \right)?$
