Block of mass and block of mass are placed on a fixed triangular wedge by means of a massless, in extensible string and a frictionless pulley as shown in figure. The wedge is inclined at

to the horizontal on both sides. The coefficient of friction between block and the wedge is and that between block and the wedge is . If the blocks and are released from rest, find the sum of magnitude of the force of friction acting on block and block .

A slab B rests on a frictionless floor as shown in the figure. A block A rests on top of the slab- B. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the block A and the slab B are and respectively. When block-A is acted upon by a horizontal force of , as shown, find the resulting acceleration of the slab- B.

As shown in the figure, a block of mass is kept on a horizontal rough surface of coefficient of friction . The critical force to be applied on the vertical surface as shown at an angle with horizontal such that it does not move, will be . The value of will
