A circular disc with a groove along its diameter is placed horizontally. A block of mass \(1 \mathrm{~kg}\) is placed as shown. The coefficient of friction between the block and all surfaces of groove in contact is \(\mu=2 / 5\). The disc has an acceleration of \(25 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\). Find the acceleration of the block with respect to disc.

  1. A 15
  2. B 20
  3. C 10
  4. D 25
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 10

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Normal reaction in vertical direction \(N_1=m g\)
Normal reaction from side to the groove \(N_2=m a \sin 37^{\circ}\)
Therefore, acceleration of block with respect to discs
\(
a_r=\frac{m a \cos 37^{\circ}-\mu N_1-\mu N_2}{m}
\)
Substituting the values we get, \(\quad a_r=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\)
