Question
A body of mass $0.5 \mathrm{~kg}$ is attached to a thread and it just floats in a liquid. The tension in the thread is(A) $0.5 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{wt}$(B) More than $0.5 \mathrm{~kg}$ wt(C) Less than $0.5 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{wt}$(D) Zero
Step 1
The body is subjected to three forces: its weight (mg), the buoyant force (F_U) due to the liquid, and the tension (T) in the thread. Show more…

As shown in the diagram above, a 2 -kilogram mass lies on horizontal rough surface while a 1-kilogram mass hangs vertically. The string between them is massless, and the pulley is both massless and frictionless. What minimum coefficient of friction will keep the blocks at rest? (A) 0.1 (B) 0.2 (C) 0.3 (D) 0.4 (E) 0.5
Three masses $1 \mathrm{~kg}, 6 \mathrm{~kg}$ and $3 \mathrm{~kg}$ are connected to each other with threads and are placed on a table as shown in figure. The acceleration with which the system is moving is $\mathrm{ms}^{-2}\left(\mathrm{~g}=10 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}\right)$ $\begin{array}{lll}\text { (A) zero } & \text { (B) } 1 & \text { (C) } 2\end{array}$ (D) 3
