$A$ block of mass $m$ is placed on a smooth horizontal surface. $A$ force making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal starts acting on the block. The magnitude of the force is constant but its direction with the horizontal changes as $\theta = a + bs$,where $a$ and $b$ are constants and $s$ is the distance covered by the block. If $|F| = 2mb$,find the velocity of the block as a function of the angle $\theta$.

  • A
    $v = 4(\cos \theta + \cos a)^{1/2}$
  • B
    $v = 2(\sin \theta - \sin a)^{1/2}$
  • C
    $v = 4(\sin \theta - \sin a)^{1/2}$
  • D
    $v = 2(\cos \theta + \cos a)^{1/2}$

$A$ force $F = Kt$ (where $t$ is the time in seconds and $K = 2 \, N/s$) is applied on a $2 \, kg$ block at $t = 0$ as shown in the figure. The displacement of the $8 \, kg$ block until the time when the $2 \, kg$ block starts slipping on the $8 \, kg$ block will be (coefficient of friction between the $2 \, kg$ block and the $8 \, kg$ block is $0.2$ and between the $8 \, kg$ block and the surface is zero,$g = 10 \, m/s^2$).
