| (c) | q | p | s | (d) | p | s | r |
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
$N = mg - 20\sqrt{2}\sin 45^{\circ} = 20\mathrm{N}, f = \mu_{k}N = 12\mathrm{N}$
Since, $20\sqrt{2}\cos45^{\circ}>\mu N$ block will move and its acceleration will be
$a = \frac {2 0 \sqrt {2} \cos 4 5 ^ {\circ} - \mu_ {k} N}{m} = \frac {2 0 - 1 2}{4} = 2 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 2}$
Hence, A ā q, B ā p, C ā s.

Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
Acceleration of system,
$a = \frac {6 0 - 1 8 - (m _ {1} + m _ {2} + m _ {3}) g \sin 3 0 ^ {\circ}}{(m _ {1} + m _ {2} + m _ {3})} = 2 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 2}$
Net force on 3 kg block = $m_{3}a = 6N$
From free body diagram of 1 kg block, we have
$N _ {1 2} - m _ {1} g \sin 3 0 ^ {\circ} - 1 8 = m _ {1} a$
$N _ {1 2} = 2 5 \mathrm{N}$
From free body diagram of 3 kg block, we have
$a = \frac {6 0 - 1 8 - (m _ {1} + m _ {2} + m _ {3}) g \sin 3 0 ^ {\circ}}{(m _ {1} + m _ {2} + m _ {3})} = 2 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 2}$
Net force on 3 kg block = $m_{3}a = 6N$
From free body diagram of 1 kg block, we have
$N _ {1 2} - m _ {1} g \sin 3 0 ^ {\circ} - 1 8 = m _ {1} a$

Explanation:
Since, the pulleys are smooth, net force on each pulley should be zero. With this concept, tensions on all strings are shown below.

Now, we can draw free body diagrams of all the four blocks.

$\mathrm{Hence}, \mathrm{A} \rightarrow (\mathrm{r}, \mathrm{t}), \mathrm{B} \rightarrow \mathrm{p}, \mathrm{C} \rightarrow \mathrm{q}, \mathrm{D} \rightarrow (\mathrm{q}, \mathrm{s}).$
