Three blocks with masses $m$,$2m$,and $3m$ are connected by strings,as shown in the figure. After an upward force $F$ is applied on block $m$,the masses move upward at a constant speed $v$. What is the net force on the block of mass $2m$? ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity)

  • A
    $0$
  • B
    $2mg$
  • C
    $3mg$
  • D

$A$ solid ball is suspended from the ceiling of a motor car through a light string. $A$ transverse pulse travels at the speed $60 \text{ cm/s}$ on the string, when the car is at rest. When the car accelerates on a horizontal road, the speed of the pulse is $66 \text{ cm/s}$. The acceleration of the car is nearly $\left(g=10 \text{ m/s}^2\right)$ (in $\text{ m/s}^2$)

On a pulley of mass $M$ hangs a rope with two masses $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ $(m_{1} > m_{2})$ tied at the ends as shown in the figure. The pulley rotates without any friction,whereas the friction between the rope and the pulley is large enough to prevent any slipping. Which of the following plots best represents the difference between the tensions in the rope on the two sides of the pulley as a function of the mass of the pulley?

$A$ block is placed on a rough horizontal plane. $A$ time-dependent horizontal force $F = kt$ acts on the block,where $k$ is a positive constant. The acceleration-time graph of the block is
