A uniform ladder of mass \(10\) kg is placed at an angle against a frictionless vertical wall, as shown in the figure, by applying a horizontal force \(F\) at the bottom \((B)\) of the ladder, towards the wall. (Take \(g=10\) m/s2).
Assume that the ground is frictionless. The force \(F\) equals:

A block of mass \(m\) is placed atop another block of mass \(M,\) and the combination is at rest on a smooth horizontal table. A force \(F_1\) is applied to \(m\) and another force \(F_2\) is applied to \(M,\) the two acting horizontally and in opposite directions. Consider the following statements about the acceleration \((a_{cm})\) of the centre of mass of the system).
