Consider a system of two masses and a pulley shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction between the two blocks and also between block and table is 0.1 . Find the force \(F\), that must be given to the \(0.8 \mathrm{~kg}\) block such that it attains acceleration of \(5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\). (Assume, acceleration due to gravity, \(\left.g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2.\right)\)

  1. A \(6.4 \mathrm{~N}\)
  2. B \(7.1 \mathrm{~N}\)
  3. C \(6.0 \mathrm{~N}\)
  4. D \(7.8 \mathrm{~N}\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(6.4 \mathrm{~N}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, acceleration of block, \(a=5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\) and coefficient of friction between two blocks and table, \(\mu=01\) \( \text { Free body diagram for } 0.8 \mathrm{~kg} \text { block. } \) For \(0.8 \mathrm{~kg}\) block, friction force due to…
