Q1. A straight uniform bean of length ‘2h’ rests in limiting equilibrium, in contact with a
rough vertical wall of height ‘h’ with me end on a rough horizontal plane and with the
other end projecting beyond the wall. If both the wall and the plane be equally rough,
prove that the angle of friction is fiven by , being the inclination
of beam to the horizon. [2008]

Q2 A heavy ring of mass m slides on a smooth vertical rod and is attached to a light

fastened to other end. Show that if the ring be dropped from a point in the rod in the same
horizontal plane as the pulley it will descend a distance , before coming to rest.
