A block of mass 10 kg is suspended from two light spring balances, as shown in the following figure.
विकल्प
Both the scales will read 10 kg.
Both the scales will read 5 kg.
The upper scale will read 10 kg and the lower zero.
The readings may be anything but their sums will be 10 kg.

उत्तर
Both the scales will read 10 kg.
From the free-body diagram
K1x1 = mg = 10 x 9.8 = 98 N
K2x2 = K1x1
So, K1x1 = K2x2 = 98 N
Therefore, both the spring balances will read the same mass, i.e. 10 kg.

What is the average retarding force on the vehicle? The mass of the three-wheeler is 400 kg and the mass of the driver is 65 kg.
A moving bicycle comes to rest after sometime if we stop pedalling it. But Newton’s first law of motion says that a moving body should continue to move for ever, unless some external force acts on it. How do you explain the bicycle case ?
