A table cloth of length L is lying on a table with one of its end at the edge of the table. A block is kept at the centre of the table cloth. A man pulls the end of the table cloth horizontally so as to take it off the table. The cloth is pulled at a constant speed `V_(0)`. What can you say about the coefficient of friction between the block and the cloth if the block remains on the table (i.e., it does not fall off the edge) as the cloth is pulled out.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
