Two blocks of masses M = 3 kg and m = 2 kg, are in contact on a horizontal table. A constant horizontal force F = 5 N is applied to block M as shown. There is a constant frictional force of 2 N between the table and the block m but no frictional force between the table and the first block M, then the acceleration of the two blocks is-

The metal blocks A and B of masses 2 kg and 1 kg , respectively are in contact on a frictionless table A constant horizontal force of 3 N is applied to the block A . Calculate the force of constant between the two blocks . If the same force is applied to the block B then what will be the force of contact ? Can you explain the difference ?

A block of unknown mass is at rest on a rough, horizontal surface. A horizontal force F is applied to the block. The graph in the figure shows the acceleration of the block with respect to the applied force. The mass of the block is

A block of mass m is stationary on a horizontal surface. It is connected with a string which has no tension. The coefficient of friction between the block and surface is m . Then , the frictional force between the block and surface is:

A block of mass M is pulled along a horizontal frictionless surface by a rope of mass m as shown in A horizontal force F is applied to one end of the rope. Find (a) the acceleration of the rope and block (b) the force that the rope exerts on the block (c) the tension in the rope at its mid point

Two block of masses m_(1) and m_(2) are placed side by side on a smooth horizontal surface as shown in fig. A horizontal force F is applied on the block . (a) Find the acceleration of each block. (b) Find the normal reaction between the two blocks.

Two blocks A and B each of mass m are placed on a smooth horizontal surface. Two horizontal force F and 2F are applied on blocks A and B, respectively, as shown in fig. Block A does not slide on block B. Then then the normal reaction acting between the two blocks is (assume no friction between the blocks)

A horizontal force F acts on the block of mass m and the block remains stationary, thr value of friction force is.

Two blocks are in contact on a frictionless table. A horizontal force is applied to the larger block, as shown in Fig. 5-53. (a) If m_(1)=2.3" kg", m_(2)=1.2" kg", and F = 3.2 N, find the magnitude of the force between the two blocks. (b) Show that if a force of the same magnitude F is applied to the smaller block but in the opposite direction, the magnitude of the force between the blocks is 2.1 N, which is not the same value calculated in (a). (c) Explain the difference.
