Figure shows two blocks tied by a string...

Figure shows two blocks tied by a string. A variable force `F =5t` is applied on the block. The coefficient of friction for the blocks are 0.6 and 0.5 respectively. Find the frictional force between blocks and ground as well as tension in the string at t = 1s

Text Solution

Verified by Experts


At `t = 1s`,`F = 5 xx 1 =5N`
Maximum value of friction force
`f_(A) = mu N =0.5 xx 20 = 10N`
To keep the block stationary the magnitude of frictional force should be 5N. So
`f_(A) = 5N`
Now from the figure it becomes clear that if
`f_(A)5N` & F = 5N ,Tension T = 0
Since tension is not in application so frictional force on block B is 0 i.e.,
`f_(B ) = 0`
