The ratio of the weight of a man in a stationary lift and when it is moving downward with uniform acceleration $a$ is $3 : 2$. The value of $a$ is ($g$ = acceleration due to gravity of the earth).

  • A
    $3/2 g$
  • B
    $g/3$
  • C
    $2/3 g$
  • D
    $g$

$A$ piece of wire is bent in the shape of a parabola $y=kx^2$ ($y$-axis vertical) with a bead of mass $m$ on it. The bead can slide on the wire without friction. It stays at the lowest point of the parabola when the wire is at rest. The wire is now accelerated parallel to the $x$-axis with a constant acceleration $a$. The distance of the new equilibrium position of the bead,where the bead can stay at rest with respect to the wire,from the $y$-axis is

$A$ block is kept on a frictionless inclined surface with an angle of inclination '$\alpha$'. The incline is given a horizontal acceleration '$a$' to keep the block stationary relative to the incline. Then '$a$' is equal to:
