Q5.11Multiple correct
In Fig. 5.1, the co-efficient of friction between the floor and the body B is 0.1. The co-efficient of friction between the bodies B and A is 0.2. A force F is applied as shown on B. The mass of A is m/2 and of B is m. Which of the following statements are true?
This question refers to a figure in the original PDF.
- (a)The bodies will move together if F = 0.25 mg.
- (b)The body A will slip with respect to B if F = 0.5 mg.
- (c)The bodies will move together if F = 0.5 mg.
- (d)The bodies will be at rest if F = 0.1 mg. (e) The maximum value of F for which the two bodies will move Fig. 5.1 together is 0.45 mg.
