A man pulls a block of mass equal to him...

A man pulls a block of mass equal to himself with a light string .The coefficient of friction between the man and the floor is greater than that between the block and the floor

A

if the block does not move , then the man also does not move

B

the block can move even when the man is stationary

C

if both move then the acceleration of the block is greater than the acceleration of man

D

if both move then the acceleration of man is greater than the acceleration of block

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C

Since `mu_(1) gt mu_(2)`
`:. (f_(1))_(max) gt (f_(2))_(max)`
Further if both move,
`a = (T -mu mg)/(m)`
`mu` of block is less .Therefore its acceleration is move

A man pulls a block heavier than himself with a lioght rope. The coefficient if friction is the same between the man and the ground, and between the block and the ground.

In Fig. 7.149 , coefficient of friction between the block and the floor is mu . Force F that will move the block on the floor with a uniform speed is :

As shown in figure, A is a man of mass 60 kg standing on a block B of mass 40 kg kept on ground. The coefficient of friction between the feet of the man and the block is 0.3 and that between B and the ground is 0.2 . If the person pulls the string with 125 N force ,then

As shown in the figure, M is a man of mass 60 kg standing on a block of mass 40 kg kept on ground. The co-efficient of friction between the feet of the man and the block is 0.3 and that between B and the ground is 0.1. If the man accelerates with an acceleration 2(m)/(s^2) in the forward direction, then,
