A system of two blocks of masses m=2kgandM=8kgm = 2kg and M = 8kg is placed on a smooth table as shown in figure. The coefficient of static friction between two blocks is 0.50 . 5. The maximum horizontal force FF that can be applied to the block of mass MM so that the blocks move together will be \left(g = 9 . 8m{s}^{- 2}\right)$

Options

  1. A9.8N9 . 8N
  2. B39.2N39 . 2N
  3. C49N49N
  4. D78.4N78 . 4N

Correct answer

C. 49N49N

Step-by-step solution

Maximum acceleration of the upper block will be,

{a}_\max = \mug = 0 . 5 \times 9 . 8 = 4 . 9m{s}^{- 2}

Therefore, maximum force that can be applied on the lower block is,

{F}_\max = \left(2 + 8\right) \times 4 . 9 = 49N
