Two blocks A and B of masses 4 kg and 6 kg are as shown in the figure. A horizontal force of 12 N is required to make A slip over B. Find the maximum horizontal force FB that can be applied on B so that both A and B move together. (take g=10 m s-2)

  1. A 30 N
  2. B 27 N
  3. C 32 N
  4. D 25 N
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 30 N

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, a force of 12 N is required for slipping. ⇒F=12=4a ⇒a=3 m s-2 Total force applied on the system, FB=Ma=4+63 ⇒FB=30 N
