A heavy mass m slides down a triangular prism of mass M . The prism lies on a horizontal surface and can move along it without friction . What will be the direction of motion of m if the inclination of the hypotenuse of the prism is `alpha` with the horizontal ?

Prism 1 of mass m_1 and width angle alpha (see figure) rests on a horizontal surface. Bar 2 of mass m_2 is placed on the prism. Assuming the friction to be negligible, find the acceleration of the prism.

In the figure heavy mass m moves down the smooth surface of a wedge making an angle alpha with the horizontal. The wedge at rest t =0 is on a smooth surface. The mass of the wedge is M the direaction of motion of the mass m makes an angle beta with the horizontal then, "Tan" beta is .

A solid homogeneous sphere of mass M and radius R is moving on a rough horizontal surface partly rolling and partly sliding. During this kind of motion of the sphere

A uniform cube of mass m and edge a moves on a horizontal surface along the positive x-axis, with initial velocity v_(0) . Then

A body with a mass m slides along the surfac of a trihedral prism of mass M, whose upper plane is inclined at an angle alpha to the horizontal. The prism rests on a horizontal plane having a vertical ledge at the rear edge of the prism to keep it at rest as show in figure-2.69. Find the force exerted by the base of the prism on the plane ? Also find the force exerted by ledge on prism. [Mg +mgcos^(2)alpha, mg sinalphacosalpha]

A rigid triangular frame ABC of mass m is hanging from a rigid horizontal rod PQ. The frame is constrained to move along horizontal without friction. A bead of mass m is released from B that moves along BC. Displacement of frame when bead reaches C is

A man of mass m is standing on a stationary flat car of mass M. The car can move without friction along horizontal rails. The man starts walking with velocity v relative to the car. Work done by him

A horizontal bar of mass m_(1) Prism of mass m_(2) can move as shown. There is no friction at any contact point. During the motion the length of the rod is always horizontal Now, magnitude valuse of .

An equilateral prism of mass m rests on a rough horizontal surface with coefficient of friction mu . A horizontal force F is applied on the top of prism as shown in figure. If the coefficient of friction is sufficiently high so that the prism does not slide before topping, the minimum force required to topple the prism is
