Important Questions on Newton's Laws of Motion (Without Friction)
A block of mass is raised by a man in two different ways as shown in figure. What is the action on the floor by the man in the two cases? If the floor yields to a normal force of , which mode should the man adopt to lift the block without the floor yielding?

Consider the two configurations shown in equilibrium. I Find the ratio of . (Ignore the mass of the rope and the pulley.)

A smooth box of mass is kept on an inclined plane of angle of inclination A force is applied on the box.
If the box does not lose contact, find acceleration of the block.

A solid sphere of mass is resting inside a cube as shown in the figure. The cube is moving with a velocity . Here, is time in . All surfaces are smooth. The sphere is at rest with respect to the cube. What is the total force exerted by the sphere on the cube?

Two blocks and are placed on a platform that moves up with an upward acceleration . Find the normal reaction between the blocks and the normal reaction on the block exerted by the platform.

The masses of blocks , and are , and , respectively. All surfaces are smooth. If the force acts as shown in the figure at the instant shown, find the force which exerts on and the acceleration of .

Seven identical dominoes (i.e., blocks) each of mass are to be stacked in three columns (figure gives an example) and pushed across a frictionless ice rink by a horizontal force. Assume dominoes do not slip with respect to each other. How many dominoes should be in each column, with a minimum of one,
to maximise the acceleration of the dominoes?
to maximise the force on the column due to column

An inclined plane is moved towards the right with an acceleration of as shown in the figure. Find the force in newton which block of mass exerts on the inclined plane. (All surfaces are smooth.)
