A cylinder of height h is filled with water and is kept on a block of height h2. The level of water in the cylinder is kept constant. Four holes numbered 1,2,3 and 4 are at the side of the cylinder and at heights 0,h4,h2 and 3h4  respectively. When all four holes are opened together, the hole from which water will reach farthest distance on the plane PQ is the hole no.

A roller is made by joining together two cones at their vertices O. It is kept on two rails AB and CD which are placed asymmetrically (see figure), with its axis perpendicular to CD and its centre O at the centre of line joining AB and CD (see figure). It is given a light push so that it starts rolling with its centre O moving parallel to CD in the direction shown. As it moves, the roller will tend to

A plank with a box on it at one end is gradually raised about the other end. As the angle of inclination with the horizontal reaches 30°, the box starts to slip and slides 4.0 m down the plank in 4.0 s. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the box and the plank will be, respectively
