A block of mass M is pulled along a frictionless horizontal suface by a rope of mass m by applying a horizontal force F at the other end of the rope. The force exerted by the rope on the block is

A

`(mF)/(m + M)`

B

`(mF)/(M - m)`

C

`(MF)/(M - m)`

D

`(MF)/(m+M)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Acceleration of the system,
a = `("total force")/("total mass") = (F)/(m + M)`
The force exerted by the rope on the block,
`Ma = (MF)/(m + M)`
The option D is correct.
