A string of negligible thickness is wrapped several times around a solid cylinder, which is kept on a rough inclined plane. A man exerts a force F through the string as shown in the figure and rolls without slipping the cylinder up through a vertical height h. The work done by the man is

A man pulls a solid cylinder ( initially at rest ) horizontal by a massless string. The string is wrapped on the cylinder and the cylinder performs pure rolling. Mass of the cylinder is 100kg , radius is pi metre & tension in string is 100N . Then the angular speed of the cylinder after one revolution will be :

A massless string is wrapped around a hollow cylinder having mass m and radius r . The cylinder is kept on a rough horizontal surface (coefficient of friction is mu ). A constant force F is applied as shown in the figure. In case of pure rolling, the friction force acting on the bottom most point of the cylinder is

Consider the arrangement shown in figure. The string is wrapped around a uniform cylinder which rolls without slipping. The other end of the string is passed over a masslessm frictionless pulley to a falling weight, determine the acceleration of the falling mass m in terms of only the mass of the cylinder M , the mass m and g

One end of spring of spring constant k is attached to the centre of a disc of mass m and radius R and the other end of the spring connected to a rigid wall. A string is wrapped on the disc and the end A of the string (as shown in the figure) is pulled through a distance a and then released. The disc is placed on a horizontal rough surface and there is no slipping at any contact point. What is the amplitude of the oscillation of the centre of the disc?

Two particles of mass m each are tied at the ends of a light string of length 2a. The whole system is kept on a frictionless horizontal surface with the string held tight so that each mass is at a distance a from the centre P (as shown in the figure). Now, the mid-point of the string is pulled vertically upwards with a small but constant force F. As a result, the particles move towards each other on the surface. The magnitude of acceleration, when the separation between them becomes 2x, is

A string is wound around a hollow cylinder of mass 5 Kg and radius 0.5 m. If the string is now pulled with a horizontal force of 40 N, the cylinder is rolling without slipping on a horizontal surface (see figure), then the angular acceleration of the cylinder will be (Neglect the mass and thickness of the string).

A block of mass M is being pulled with the help of a string of mass m and length L. the horizontal force applied by the man on the string is F. Determine (a) Find the force exerted by the string on the block and acceleration of system. (b) Find the tension at the mid point of the string. (c ) Find the tension at a distance x from the end at which force is applied. Assume that the block is kept on a frictionless horizontal surface and the mass is uniformly distributed in the string.

A plank of mas M and length L is at rest on as frictionless floor. The top surface of the plank has friction. At one end of it a man of mass m is standing as shown in figure. If the man walks towards the other end the find the distance, which the plank moves a till the man reaches the centre of the plank. b. till the man reaches the other end of the plank.
