A block of mass \(5 \mathrm{~kg}\) is pulled by a force \(F\) as shown in the figure. If the coefficient of friction is 0.1 , then the force needed to accelerate the block to \(3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\) to the right is close to

  1. A \(12 \mathrm{~N}\)
  2. B \(22 \mathrm{~N}\)
  3. C \(32 \mathrm{~N}\)
  4. D \(42 \mathrm{~N}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(22 \mathrm{~N}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Component of force accelerating the block is \(f \cos \theta\). Net force on block, \(F_{\text {net }}=F \cos \theta-\mu N\) \[ \begin{aligned} & =F \cos 30^{\circ}-0.1 \times 5 \times 9.8 \\ & =\frac{\sqrt{3} F}{2}-49 \end{aligned} \] From, \(F_{\text {net }}=m a\), we have,…
