JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 4.2 friction
The coefficient of static friction between a wooden block of mass \(0.5\, kg\) and a vertical rough wall is \(0.2\) The magnitude of horizontal force that should be applied on the block to keep it adhere to the wall will be \(N\) \(\left[ g =10\, ms ^{-2}\right]\)
- A \(25\)
- B \(30\)
- C \(30\)
- D \(20\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(25\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(F.B.D.\) of the block is shown in the diagram Since block is at rest therefore \(fr - mg =0\) \(........(1)\) \(F- N =0\) \(..........(2)\) \(fr \leq \mu N\) In limiting case \(fr =\mu N =\mu F\) \(........(3)\) Using eq. \((1)\) and \((3)\) \(\therefore \mu F = mg\)…
