Two blocks of masses m_(1) and m_(2) kept touching each other on an inclined plane of inclination a with the horizontal. Show that (i) theforce of interaction between the blocks is ((mu_(1)-mu_(2))m_(1)m_(2)gcosalpha)/((m_(1)+m_(2))) and (ii) the minimum value of alpha at which the blocks just start sliding is a = tan^(-1).(mu_(1)m_(1)+mu_(2)m_(2))/(m_(1)+m_(2)) . Where mu_(1) and mu_(2) are the coefficients of friction between the block m_(1) and the inclined plane and between the block m_(2) and the inclinedplane respectively.

A concave lens having a material of refractive index mu_(1) is kept in a medium of R.I. mu_(2) , where mu_(1) lt mu_(2) . A parallel beam of light is incident on the lens. The concave lens will act as

R is the radius of curvature for both the surfaces of lens shown in figure. Refractive index mu_(1), mu_(2) and mu_(3) are indicated in the figure. Light rays are incident from the side of refractive index mu_(1) as shown. If f is focal length of lens then find f//R for mu_(1) = 1, mu_(2)= 1.5, mu_(3)= 2 . |{:(0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9):}|
