Two bodies of masses $10\; kg$ and $20\; kg$ respectively,kept on a smooth horizontal surface,are tied to the ends of a light string. $A$ horizontal force $F = 600\; N$ is applied to $(i)\; A$,$(ii)\; B$ along the direction of the string. What is the tension in the string in each case?

  • A
    $400\; N, 200\; N$
  • B
    $200\; N, 400\; N$
  • C
    $300\; N, 300\; N$
  • D
    $600\; N, 600\; N$

$A$ small block of mass $m$ is placed on a wedge of mass $M$ as shown,which is initially at rest. All the surfaces are frictionless. The spring attached to the other end of the wedge has a force constant $k$. If $a'$ is the acceleration of $m$ relative to the wedge as it starts coming down and $A$ is the acceleration acquired by the wedge as the block starts coming down,then the maximum retardation of $M$ is:
