There is no friction between the body B and surface of the table. If the body B is pulled with
force F then
F  (mA  mB )a
Due to this force upper body A will feel the pseudo force in a backward direction.
f  mA  a

But due to friction between A and B, body will not move. The body A will start moving when
pseudo force is more than friction force.

(A) 360 (B) 900 (C) 1260 (D) 1620
Solution (B):
The word ARRANGE, has AA, RR, NGE letters, that is two A' s, two R's and N, G, E one each.

Required number of ways = 1260 – 360 = 900

66. A five digit number divisible by 3 has to formed using the numerals 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 without
repetition. The total number of ways in which this can be done is
(A) 216 (B) 240 (C) 600 (D) 3125
Solution (A):
We know that a five digit number is divisible by 3, if and only if sum of its digits (= 15) is
divisible by 3, therefore we should not use 0 or 3 while forming the five digit numbers. Now,
(i) In case we do not use 0 the five digit number can be formed
(from the digit 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) in 5 P5 ways.
(ii) In case we do not use 3, the five digit number can be formed
(from the digit 0, 1, 2, 4, 5) in 6 !  5 !  2  480 ways.
 The total number of such 5 digit number
 5P5  (5 P5 4P4 )  120  96  216 .

67. A library has a copies of one book, b copies of each of two books, c copies of each of three

(A) (B) 2 3
(C) (D) None of these
a !b!c! a ! (b !) (c !) a !b!c!
Solution (B):
Total number of books  a  2b  3c  d
Since there are b copies of each of two books, c copies of each of three books and single copies
(a  2b  3c  d) !
of d books. Therefore the total number of arrangements is .
