Two blocks A and B are placed one over the other on a smooth horizontal surface. The maximum horizontal force that can be applied on the upper block B , so that A and B move without separation is 49 N . The coefficient of friction between A and B is
Options
- A0.2
- B0.3
- C0.5
- D0.8
Correct answer
C. 0.5
Step-by-step solution
Given, F=49 ~N , M_A=7 ~kg , M_B=3 ~kg , = ? Equation of motion of two blocks-system F_ = (M_A+M_B ) g aligned & = F (M_A+M_B ) g & = 49 (7+3) 9 8 aligned aligned & = 49 10 9.8 & =0.5 aligned
