$A$ block of mass $1 \, kg$ is at rest on a horizontal table. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the table is $0.5$. The magnitude of the force acting upwards at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ from the horizontal that will just start the block moving is

  • A
    $5 \, N$
  • B
    $\frac{20}{2 + \sqrt{3}} \, N$
  • C
    $\frac{20}{2 - \sqrt{3}} \, N$

$A$ force $F = mg$ is acting on a block of mass $m$ at an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is $\mu$. The block can be pulled along the surface if:

$A$ force $\vec{F} = \hat{i} + 4\hat{j} \text{ N}$ acts on the $1 \text{ kg}$ block shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is $\mu = 0.3$. The force of friction acting on the block is:

View Solution

$A$ block of mass $4 \text{ kg}$ is placed on a horizontal surface having coefficients of static and kinetic friction as $0.5$ and $0.4$ respectively. If a force of $4 \text{ N}$ is applied parallel to the horizontal surface, then the force of friction acting on the body will be $\left[g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2\right]$ (in $\text{ N}$)

The maximum value of the applied force $F$ such that the block as shown in the arrangement does not move is (Acceleration due to gravity, $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $\,N$)
