JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 4.2 friction

Consider a block and trolley system as shown in figure. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the trolley and the surface is \(0.04\) , the acceleration of the system in \(\mathrm{ms}^{-2}\) is _______. (Consider that the string is massless and unstretchable and the pulley is also massless and frictionless)

  1. A \(3\)
  2. B \(4\)
  3. C \(2\)
  4. D \(1.2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{k}}=\mu \mathrm{N}=0.04 \times 20 \mathrm{~g}=8 \text { Newton }\) \(\mathrm{a}=\frac{60-8}{26}=2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\)
