Vedclass · Answer

(D) $1$. Calculate the maximum static frictional force between block $A$ and slab $B$: $f_{s,max} = \mu_s N = \mu_s m_A g = 0.60 	imes 10 	imes 9.8 = 58 \ N$. $2$. Since the applied force $(100 \ N)$ is greater than the maximum static friction $(58 \ N)$,block $A$ will slide over slab $B$. $3$. Once sliding occurs,the kinetic friction force acts between the surfaces: $f_k = \mu_k N = \mu_k m_A g = 0.40 	imes 10 	imes 9.8 = 39.2 \ N$. $4$. This kinetic friction force $f_k$ is the only horizontal force acting on slab $B$ (since the floor is frictionless). $5$. Using Newton's second law for slab $B$: $F_{net} = M_B a_B \Rightarrow f_k = M_B a_B$. $6$. $39.2 = 30 	imes a_B \Rightarrow a_B = \frac{39.2}{30} \approx 1.31 \ m \ s^{-2}$.

If $100 \,N$ force is applied to $10 \,kg$ block as shown in the diagram,the acceleration of $40 \,kg$ slab is (in $\,ms^{-2}$)

The system shown in the figure is released. Find the accelerations $a_1$ (for the $2 \ kg$ block) and $a_2$ (for the $3 \ kg$ block).

As shown in the figure, block $m$ and wedge $M$ move together with a horizontal acceleration of $20\, m/s^2$. Given $m = 1\, kg$, $\mu = 0.6$ (between $m$ and $M$) and $g = 10\, m/s^2$. Choose the $\text{CORRECT}$ alternative:
