In the given figure, the blocks $A$, $B$, and $C$ weigh $4 \ kg$, $6 \ kg$, and $8 \ kg$ respectively. The coefficient of sliding friction between any two surfaces is $0.5$. The force $\vec{F}$ required to slide the block $C$ with constant speed is . . . . . . $N$. (Use $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

In the figure,two blocks $M$ and $m$ are tied together with an inextensible and light string. The mass $M$ is placed on a rough horizontal surface with coefficient of friction $\mu$ and the mass $m$ is hanging vertically against a smooth vertical wall. The pulley is frictionless. Imagine a situation in which the given arrangement is placed inside an elevator that can move only in the vertical direction and compare the situation with the case when it is placed on the ground. When the elevator accelerates downward with $a_0 (< g)$,then

$A$ 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 $\theta$.

$A$ ball connected with a string is released at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the vertical,as shown in the figure. If the mass of the box is equal to the mass of the ball,the acceleration of the box at this instant will be:
