The figure shows a man of mass \(65\) kg standing stationary with respect to a horizontal conveyor belt that is accelerating with \(1\) ms-2If the coefficient of static friction between the man’s shoes and the belt is \(0.2,\) up to what acceleration of the belt can the man continue to be stationary relative to the belt? (Take \(g=10\) m/s2)

  
 
1. \(2\) ms-2 2. \(3\) ms-2
3. \(1\) ms-2 4. \(9.8\) ms-2

The rear side of a truck is open and a box of 40 kg mass is placed 5 m away from the open end as shown in Figure. The coefficient of friction between the box and the surface below it is 0.15. On a straight road, the truck starts from rest and accelerates with 2 m s-2. At what distance from the starting point does the box fall off the truck? (Ignore the size of the box).

1. 15.5 m
2. 40.5 m
3. 18.8 m
4. 25.0 m

A 70 kg man stands in contact against the inner wall of a hollow cylindrical drum of radius 3 m rotating about its vertical axis with 200 revs/min. The coefficient of friction between the wall and his clothing is 0.15. What is the minimum rotational speed of the cylinder to enable the man to remain stuck to the wall (without falling) when the floor is suddenly removed?

1. 3.14 rad/s
2. 4.17 rad/s
3. 4.71 rad/s
4. 3.21 rad/s
