Two blocks of m asses 6 kg and 2 kg are ...

Two blocks of m asses 6 kg and 2 kg are placed in contact on a horizontal frictionless surface. If a horizontal force of 2N is applied to m ass 6 kg to move them together, what will be the acceleration of 2 kg block ? What will be the force on this block ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts


Acceleration of the system of two block
`a= ("total force ")/("total mass ") = (F )/( m_(1) +m_(2)) = (2 ) /(6+2) = (2)/(8) = 0.25 ms^(-2)`
Force on 2 kg block F= `m_(2) a = 2xx 0.025 =0.50 N`
