1. A cylinder rests in a supporting carriage as shown. The side AB of carriage makes an angle 30o with the
horizontal and side BC is vertical. The carriage lies on a fixed horizontal surface and is being pulled
towards left with an horizontal acceleration 'a'. The magnitude of normal reactions exerted by sides AB
and BC of carriage on the cylinder be NAB and NBC respectively. Neglect friction everywhere. Then as
the magnitude of acceleration 'a ' of the carriage is increased, pick up the correct statement:
(1) NAB increases and NBC decreases. (2) Both NAB and NBC increase.
(3) NAB remains constant and NBC increases. (4) NAB increases and NBC remains constant.
2. A heavy particle of mass m is tied to the end A of a string of length 1.6 m. Its other end O is fixed. It
revolves as a conical pendulum with the string making 60o with the vertical. Then tension is equal to
