A block of mass 2 kg slides on an inclined plane which makes an angle of 30 ° with the horizontal. The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is 3 2 . The force along the plane that needs to be applied to the block so that it moves up without any acceleration is ( take g = 10 m s - 2 )
Options
- A10   N
- B30   N
- C20   N
- D25   N
Correct answer
D. 25   N
Step-by-step solution
For acceleration to be zero, the net force should be zero. F = mgsinθ + μmgcosθ ⇒ F = 2 × 10 × 1 2 + 3 2 × 2 × 10 × 3 2 ⇒ F = 25   N
