Question 1. A civil engineer wishes to redesign the curved roadway in such a way that a car will not have to rely on friction to round the curve without skidding. In other words, a car moving at the designated speed can negotiate the curve even when the road is covered with ice. Such a ramp is usually banked, which means that the roadway is tilted toward the inside of the curve. Suppose the designated speed for the ramp is to be 10.0 m/s and the radius of the curve is 20.0 m. At what angle should the curve be banked?

Question 2. A body of mass M is kept on a rough horizontal surface (friction coefficient = μ). A person is trying to pull the body by applying a horizontal force but the body is not moving. The force by the surface on the body is F, where 
  1.    F = Mg             
  2.    F = μMg
  3.    Mg ≤ F ≤ Mg √1+μ2

If F1 = 0
So contact force will only have Normal which is equal to Mg
So F will be Mg

Now as F1 increasesfrkeeps increasing till it reaches limiting value i.e., μN = μmg
So, in that case, contact force F will be
N2+fr2 =(Mg)2+(μMg)2
F = Mg1+μ2
This means contact force F will lie between Mg F Mg1+μ2

x1+ x1- x2+ x3- x2+x3-x1= L
L is length of string.
x1- 2x2+ 2x3= L
Assuming mass 'm' moves downward
P1will move up. Which means distance from P1and reference point will reduce.
d2x1dt2=a(p1)
Differentiating twice
- a1- 0 + 2a3= 0 (x2is constant)
2a3=a1
2a(p3) = a(p1)
Question 4. Spring fitted doors close by themselves when released. You want to keep the door open for a long time, say for an hour. If you put a half kg stone in front of the open door, it does not help. The stone slides with the door and the door gets closed. However, if you sandwich a 20 gm piece of wood in the small gap between the door and the floor, the door stays open. Explain why a much lighter piece of wood is able to keep the door open while the heavy stone fails. Assume coefficient of friction between stone and ground and wood and ground are the same. 
  1.    There is no horizontal force on the wood by the door
  2.    Surface area of contact between wood and door is less
  3.    Limiting friction will increase as the horizontal force on the block by the ground will increase
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Limiting friction will increase as the horizontal force on the block by the ground will increase
:
C
In this case, the door will apply a downward force on the wooden piece which will increase the normal force that the ground applies on the wooden piece. Limiting value of friction will increase.
Question 5. Block A is kept on top of block B and moves leftwards with respect to B. Assume the friction to be present between the blocks. The direction of friction force on A by B, will be?
  1.    → (Rightwards)
  2.    ←(Leftwards)
  3.    ↘
  4.    ↙
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> → (Rightwards)
:
A
Block A moves in the leftward direction with respect to B. Friction will act in the rightward direction on A. As the bonds formed will oppose the relative motion.
Question 6. What minimum amount of force is required to move a 10kg block kept on a horizontal surface. Given (μs=0.5), (μk=0.4) If the block was already moving then what would be the minimum force required to maintain its velocity at a constant value? 
  1.    0N, 40N           
  2.    50N, 0N
  3.    50N, 40N
  4.    40N, 50N
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 50N, 40N
:
C
When static,
fmax = μs x N
= 0.5 ×mg
= 0.5 ×10 ×10
= 50N
Minimum value of external force required to move it is 50 N
When moving
F = μk ×N
= 0.4 ×10 ×10
= 40N
When moving, minimum force required prevent it from accelerating/decelerating is 40N.
Question 7. A body of mass 400g slides on a rough horizontal surface. If the frictional force is 3.0 N, find (a) the angle made by the contact force on the body with the vertical and (b) the magnitude of the contact force. Take g = 10ms2

  2.    37∘, 4N
  3.    53∘, 4N
  4.    53∘, 5N
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 37∘, 5N
:
A
Let the contact force on the block by the surface be F which makes an angle θwith the vertical

The component of F perpendicular to the contact surface is the normal reaction N and the component of F parallel to the surface is the well-known frictional force f. As the surface is horizontal, N is vertically upward. For vertical equilibrium,
N = mg = (0.400 kg) 10ms2 = 4.0 N.
The frictional force is f = 3.0 N.
(a)
Or, θ = tan1( 34) = 37.
(b)The magnitude of the contact force is
F =N2+f2
=(4.0N)2+(3.0N)2 = 5.0 N.
Question 8. A body of mass 10 kg is slipping on a rough horizontal plane and moves with a deceleration of 4.0 m/s2 What is the magnitude of frictional force?
  1.    40 N
  2.    20 N
  3.    100 N

Answer: Option A. -> 40 N

B
As the external force F is gradually increased from zero it is compensated by the friction and the string bears no tension. When limiting friction is achieved by increasing force F to a value tillμsmg, the further increase in F is transferred to the string.

Now
Block will move but if the block starts moving then kinetic friction is involved.
