The rear side of a truck is open A box of 40kg mass is placed 5m away from the open end as shown in The coefficient of friction between the box and the surface is 0.15. On a straight road, the truck starts from rest and accel erating with 2m//s^(2) . At what dis tance from the starting point does the box dis-tance from the starting point does the box fall from the truck? (Ignore the size of the box) .

The rear side of truck is open and a box of mass 50kg is placed at 3.2m away from the open end. The co-efficient of friction between the box and the surface is 0.2. If the truck starts from rest and moves on a straight road with acceleration 2.1ms^(-2) the box falls off the truck after a time (g=10ms^(-2))

The rear side of a truck is open and a box of mass 20kg is placed on the truck 4m away from the open end mu = 0.15 and g = 10m//s^(2) The truck starts from rest with an acceleration of 2m//s^(2) on a straight road The box will fall off the truck when it is at a distance from the starting point equal to .

The rear side of a truck is open and a box of mass 2 kg is placed on the truck 8 meters away from the open end. mu = 0.1 and g = 10 m//s^(2) . The truck starts from rest with an acceleration of 2 m//s^(2) on a straight road. The box will fall off the truck when it is at distance from the starting point equal to

A block of mass 15kg is placed on a long trolley. The cofficient of fricition between the block and trolley is 0.18. The trolley accelerates from rest with 0.5m//s^(2) for 20s. then what is the friction force:-

A body starting from rest has an acceleration of 4ms^(-2) . Calculate distance travelled by it in 5th second.

A body starting from rest has an acceleration of 5m//s^(2) . Calculate the distance travelled by it in 4^(th) second.

A block of mass 1kg lies on a horizontal surface in a truck. The coefficeint of friction between the block and surface is 0.5. If the acceleration of the truck is 6ms^(-2) the acceleration of the block relative to ground is

A block of mass 1 kg is placed on a truck which accelerates with acceleration 5ms^(-2) . The coefficient of static friction between the block and truck is 0.6. The frictional force acting on the block is

A block of mass 4kg is placed in contact with the front vertical surface of a lorry. The coefficient of friction between the vertical surface and block is 0.8. The lorry is moving with an acceleration of 15 m//s^2 (g = 10ms^(-2)) . The force of friction between lorry and block is
