A man squatting on the ground gets straight up and stand. The force of reaction of ground on the man during the process is.

A

constant and equal to `mg` in magnitude.

B

constant and greater than `mg` in magnitude.

C

variable but always greater than `mg`.

D

at first greater than `mg`, and later becomes equal to `mg`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

When the man gets straight up and sstand, reaction of ground on the man `=`mg. However, when he is squatting on the ground, reactio of ground is more than `mg`, as the man is to exert sone extra force on the ground to stand up .

A man of mass 80kg pushes box of mass 20kg horizontaly. The man moves the box with a constant acceleration of 2 m//s^(2) but his foot does not slip on the ground. There is no friction between the box and the ground. There is no friction between the box and the ground. whereas there is sufficient friction between the man's foot and the ground to prevent him from slipping. Assertion:- The force applied by the man on the box is equal and opposite to the force applied by the force applid by the box on the man. Reason:- Friction force applied by the ground on the man is 200N.
