A block of certain mass is placed on a rough floor. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the block and the floor are 0.4 and 0.25 respectively. A constant horizontal force \( F = 20 \, \text{N} \) acts on it so that the velocity of the block varies with time according to the following graph. The mass of the block is nearly (Take \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \)):
A wooden block of mass M lies on a rough floor. Another wooden block of the same mass is hanging from the point O through strings as shown in the figure. To achieve equilibrium, the coefficient of static friction between the block on the floor and the floor itself is
The equation that helps us to identify the type and complexity of the differential equation is the order and degree of a differential equation.
The highest order of the derivative that appears in the differential equation is the order of a differential equation.
The highest power of the highest order derivative that appears in a differential equation is the degree of a differential equation. Its degree is always a positive integer.
