Masses of $10\, kg$ and $20\, kg$ are connected by a massless spring as shown in the figure. $A$ force of $200\, N$ acts on the $20\, kg$ mass. At the instant shown,the $10\, kg$ mass has an acceleration of $12\, m/s^2$. What is the acceleration of the $20\, kg$ mass in $m/s^2$?

As shown in the figure,a block of mass $2 \ kg$ is placed on a rough inclined plane such that it just touches the spring. The block moves downwards. What will be the maximum compression of the spring in $cm$?

$A$ system consists of three masses $m_1$,$m_2$,and $m_3$ connected by a string passing over a pulley $P$. The mass $m_1$ hangs freely,and $m_2$ and $m_3$ are on a rough horizontal table (the coefficient of friction $= \mu$). The pulley is frictionless and of negligible mass. Find the downward acceleration of mass $m_1$. (Assume $m_1 = m_2 = m_3 = m$)

Statement $I :$ $A$ cyclist is moving on an unbanked road with a speed of $7 \, km/h$ and takes a sharp circular turn along a path of radius $2 \, m$ without reducing the speed. The static friction coefficient is $0.2$. The cyclist will not slip and pass the curve $(g = 9.8 \, m/s^2)$.
Statement $II :$ If the road is banked at an angle of $45^{\circ}$,the cyclist can cross the curve of $2 \, m$ radius with a speed of $18.5 \, km/h$ without slipping.
