A man generates a symmetrical pulse in a string by moving his hand up and down. At t=0 the point in his hand moves downward. The pulse travels with speed of 3 m//s on the string & his hands passes 6 times in each second from the mean position. Then the point on the string at a distance 3m will reach its upper extreme first time at time t=

A block of mass M is tied to one end of a massless rope the other end of the rope is in the hands of a man of mass 2M as shown in the figure. The block and the man are resting on a rough plank of mass M as shown in the figure. The whole system is resting on a smooth horizontal surface. The man pulls the rope. Pulley is massless and frictionless. What is the displacement of the plank when the block meets the pulley ( Man does not leave his position on plank during the pull)

A cart of mass M is tied to one end of a massless rope of length 10m. The other end of the rope is in the hands of a man of mass (M)/(2) . The entire ststem is on a smooth horizontal surface. If the man pulls the cart by the rope then find the distance by which the man will slip on the horizontal surface before the man and the cart will meet each other.
