A hammer of mass 1 kg is used to break an almond shell. The velocity time graph of the hammer during the impact duration is shown in the figure. The shape of force time graph is also given, which can be approximated as a triangle. A force of 300 N is required for breaking the shell, while a force of 200 N will not be able to break it, but just introduce a crack. Which one of the following events will happen?

A rigid circular disc of radius 0.2 m and mass 10 kg rolls without slip on the ground at A. The coefficient of static friction
between ground and disc is 0.7. A torque
of 9 Nm acts on the disc as shown. Given acceleration due to gravity
. The friction force (in N) acting on the disc (in integer) is
