The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the forces acting on the 10 kg block on the inclined plane. Let's break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the Forces Acting on the Block 1. **Weight of the Block (W)**: The weight of the block is given by \( W = m \cdot g = 10 \, \text{kg} \cdot 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 = 100 \, \text{N} \). 2. **Force Applied via String (T)**: The tension in the string pulling the block up the incline is \( T = 200 \, \text{N} \). 3. **Additional Force (F)**: There is also a downward force of \( F = 10 \, \text{N} \) acting on the block. 4. **Normal Force (N)**: The normal force acts perpendicular to the inclined surface. 5. **Component of Weight Along the Incline**: The component of the weight acting down the incline can be calculated as \( W_{\text{parallel}} = W \cdot \sin(\theta) \), where \( \theta = 30^\circ \). ### Step 2: Calculate the Components of the Weight - The component of the weight acting down the incline is: \[ W_{\text{parallel}} = 100 \cdot \sin(30^\circ) = 100 \cdot \frac{1}{2} = 50 \, \text{N} \] ### Step 3: Set Up the Equation of Motion - The net force acting along the incline can be expressed as: \[ F_{\text{net}} = T - W_{\text{parallel}} - F \] - Substituting the known values: \[ F_{\text{net}} = 200 \, \text{N} - 50 \, \text{N} - 10 \, \text{N} = 140 \, \text{N} \] ### Step 4: Apply Newton's Second Law - According to Newton's second law, \( F_{\text{net}} = m \cdot a \): \[ 140 \, \text{N} = 10 \, \text{kg} \cdot a \] - Solving for acceleration \( a \): \[ a = \frac{140 \, \text{N}}{10 \, \text{kg}} = 14 \, \text{m/s}^2 \] ### Final Answer The acceleration of the 10 kg block is \( \mathbf{14 \, m/s^2} \). ---
