In Fig. a pulley is shown which is frictionless and a ring of mass `m` can slide on the string without any friction. One end of the string is attached to point `B` and to the other end, a block `'P'` of mass `m` is attached. The whole system lies in vertical plane.
If the system is released from rest, it is found that the system remains at rest. What is the value of `theta`

A

`30^(@)`

B

In Fig. a pulley is shown which is frictionless and a ring of mass m can slide on the string without any friction. One end of the string is attached to point B and to the other end, a block 'P' of mass m is attached. The whole system lies in vertical plane. If block 'C' mentioned above was released from some height and collided with 'P' with some velocity u , then find the velocity of the ring just after the collision. The collision is perfectly inelastic.

In Fig. a pulley is shown which is frictionless and a ring of mass m can slide on the string without any friction. One end of the string is attached to point B and to the other end, a block 'P' of mass m is attached. The whole system lies in vertical plane. Now another block 'C' of same mass m is attached to the block '13' and system is released from rest. If a_(1) and a_(2) are the magnitudes of initial accelerations of ring and blocks, respectively, then

A disc of mass m and radius r is free to rotate about its centre as shown in the figure. A string is wrapped over its rim and a block of mass m is attached to the free end of the string. The system is released from rest. The speed of the block as it descends through a height h, is :-

A light string passes over a frictionless pulley. To one of its ends a mass of 6 kg is attached. To its other end a mass of 10 kg is attached. The tension in the thread will be

A smooth ring of mass m can slide on a fixed horizontal rod. A string tied to the ring pases over a fixed pulley B and carries a block C of mass 2m as shown below. As the ring starts sliding

Two masses m and M are attached to the strings as shown in the figure. If the system is in equilibruim, then

An ideal string is wrapped on a ring and the free end of the string is attached to the ceiling as shown in the figure. Initially, the system is held in equilibrium by an external agent and at some instant of time, the system is released from rest. If there is no slipping between the string and the ring, then the tension in the string is

A wheel of moment of inertia I and rdius r is free to rotate about its centre as shown in figure. A string is wrapped over its rim and a block of mass m is attached to the free end of the string. The system is released from rest. Find the speed of the block as it descends through a height h.

A block of mass m_(1) rests on a horizontal table. A string tied to the block is passed on a frictionless pulley fixed at the end of the table and to the other end of string is hung another block of mass m_(2) . The acceleration of the system is
