A wedge of mass M makes an angle `theta` with the horizontal. The wedge is placed on horizontal frictionless surface. A small block of mass m is placed on the inclined surface of wedge. What horizontal force F must be applied to the wedge so that the force of friction between the block and wedge is zero ?
