$A$ rod of length $L$ and mass $M$ is acted on by two unequal forces $F_1$ and $F_2$ $(F_2 < F_1)$ as shown in the figure. The tension in the rod at a distance $y$ from the end $A$ is given by:

  • A
    ${F_1}\left( {1 - \frac{y}{L}} \right) + {F_2}\left( {\frac{y}{L}} \right)$
  • B
    ${F_2}\left( {1 - \frac{y}{L}} \right) + {F_1}\left( {\frac{y}{L}} \right)$
  • C
    $\left( {{F_1} - {F_2}} \right)\frac{y}{L}$
  • D
    None of these

Two blocks of mass $8\,kg$ and $2\,kg$ are connected by a string and they are released on an inclined plane of inclination $30^o$ as shown in the figure. What will be the tension in the string connecting the two blocks (in $,N$)? (Assume the surface is frictionless and $g = 10\,m/s^2$)

$A$ 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.

$A$ trolley of mass $20 \ kg$ is attached to a block of mass $4 \ kg$ by a massless string passing over a frictionless pulley as shown in the figure. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the trolley and the surface is $0.02$,then the acceleration of the trolley and block system is (take $g=10 \ ms^{-2}$):- (in $ms^{-2}$)
