B) A 7111 long ladder rests against a vertical wa?, with which it makes an angle
of 45?, and on a ?oor. If a man, whose weight is one half of that of the ladder,
Climbs it, at what distance along the ladder will he be, when the ladder is
about to slip shown in Figure 4? The coef?cient of friction between the ladder
and the wall is 1/3 and that between the ladder and the floor is 1/2.

right with a constant acceleration of 0.18 m/s2 shown in Figure 5.
Determine:
i) acceleration of the block B connected to the trolley and
ii) velocities of the trolley and the block after a time of 4 seconds and the

B) A passenger train passes a certain station at 60 km/hr and covers a distance of
12 km with this speed and then stops at the next station 15 km from the first
With uniform retardation. A local train starting from the first station covers. the
same distance in double this time and stops at the next station. Determine the
maximum speed of the localtrain which covers a part of the distance With
uniform acceleration and the rest with uniform retardation. (6M)
Q.5. .
A) Explain in detail: D'Alemberts principle and write the equations of dynamic
equilibrium of the particle. (4M)
B) Two blocks of masses M1 and M2 are connected by a ?exible but (8M)
inextensible string as shown in the figure. Assuming the coefficient of
friction between block M1 and hon'zontal surface to be }1 find the
acceleration of the masses and tension in the string as per figure 6.
Assume M1: 10 kg and M2 = 5 kg, 11 = 0.25.
