A block A of mass 3kg and another block ...

A block A of mass 3kg and another block B of mass 2 kg are connected by a light inextensible string as shown in figure. If the coefficient of friction between the surface of the table and A is 0.5. What maximum mass C is to be placed on A so that the system is to be in equilibrium ?

A

3kg

B

2kg

C

1kg

D

4kg

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
For equilibrium `f=mum_(B)g, f=mu(m_(A)+m_(C))g`
