Important Questions on Newton’s Laws of Motion
Physical independence of force is a consequence of,

A lift weighing is moving upwards with an acceleration of . The tension in the supporting cable is

Three identical blocks of masses are drawn by a force on a frictionless surface, then what is the tension (in ) in the string between the blocks and ?

A player caught a cricket ball of mass moving at a rate of . If, the catching process is completed in , the force of the blow exerted by the ball on the hand of the player is equal to

A light spring balance hangs from the hook of the other light spring balance and a block of mass hangs from the former one. Then the true statement about the scale reading is –

If suddenly the gravitational force of attraction between earth and a satellite revolving around it becomes zero, then the satellite will –

A body of mass hangs at one end of a string of length , the other end of which is fixed. It is given a horizontal velocity so that the string would just reach where it makes an angle of with the vertical. The tension in the string at mean position is
