The pulleys and strings shown in the figure are smooth and of negligible mass. For the system to remain in equilibrium, the angle \(\theta\) should be: 
 
1. \(0^\circ\)
2. \(30^\circ\)
3. \(45^\circ\)
4. \(60^\circ\)

A string of negligible mass going over a clamped pulley of mass \(m\) supports a block of mass \(M\) as shown in the figure. The force on the pulley by the clamp is given by:
 
1. \(\sqrt{2} M g\)
2. \(\sqrt{2} m g\)
3. \(g\sqrt{\left( M + m \right)^{2} + m^{2}}\)
4. \(g\sqrt{\left(M + m \right)^{2} + M^{2}}\)

The variation of momentum with the time of one of the bodies in a two-body collision is shown in fig. The instantaneous force is the maximum corresponding to the point:
             
1. \(P\)
2. \(Q\)
3. \(R\)
4. \(S\)

A block of mass \(m\) lying on a rough horizontal plane is acted upon by a horizontal force \(P\) and another force \(Q\) inclined at an angle \(\theta\) to the vertical. The block will remain in equilibrium if the coefficient of friction between it and the surface is: 

                        
1. \(\frac{(P+Q\sin\theta)}{(mg+Q\cos\theta)}\)

2. \(\frac{(P\cos\theta+Q)}{(mg-Q\sin\theta)}\)

3. \(\frac{(P+Q\cos\theta)}{(mg+Q\sin\theta)}\)

4. \(\frac{(P\sin\theta-Q)}{(mg-Q\cos\theta)}\)

A particle moves in the \(XY\text-\)plane under the action of a force \(F\) such that the components of its linear momentum \(p\) at any time \(t\) are \(p_x = 2 \cos t\),  \(p_y = 2 \sin t\). The angle between \(F\) and \(p\) at time \(t\) will be:

Two stones of masses \(m\) and \(2m\) are whirled in horizontal circles, the heavier one in a radius \(\frac{r}{2}\) and the lighter one in the radius \(r.\) The tangential speed of lighter stone is \(n\) times that of heavier stone when they experience the same centripetal forces. The value of \(n\) is:

A car of mass \(m\) is moving on a level circular track of radius \(R\). If \(\mu_s\) represent the static friction between the road and tyres of the car, then the maximum speed of the car in circular motion is given by:

A ball of mass \(0.1~\text{kg}\) is whirled in a horizontal circle of radius \(1\) m by means of a string at an initial speed of \(10~\text{rpm}\) . Keeping the radius constant, the tension in the string is reduced to one quarter of its initial value. The new speed is:

A rigid ball of mass \(M\) strikes a rigid wall at \(60^{\circ}\) and gets reflected without loss of speed, as shown in the figure. The value of the impulse imparted by the wall on the ball will be:
