By what acceleration the boy must go up so that 100 kg block remains stationary on the wedge. The wedge is fixed and is smooth. `(g=10 m//s^(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

For the block to remain stationary, `T = mg sin theta`
`T=100xx10xx sin 53`
`= 100xx ""^(2)cancel(10)xx(4)/(cancel(5))=800N`
FBD for man
`T-mg=ma`
T = m (g + a)
`80 cancel(0)=5cancel(0)(10+a)`
`a=6 m//s^(2)`

In the arrangement shown, by what acceleration the boy must go up so that 100 kg block remains stationary on the wedge. The wedge is fixed and friction is absent everywhere. Take g = 10m//s^2

A block of mass 1 kg is at rest relative to a smooth wedge moving leftwards with constant acceleration a = 5m//s^2 . Let N be the normal reaction between the block and the wedge. Then : (g = 10 m//s^2)

A block of mass m is pi aced on a smooth wedge of inclination Q. The whole system is accelerated horizontally so that the block does not slip on the wedge. Find the i) Acceleration of the wedge ii) Force to be applied on the wedge iii) Force exerted by the wedge on the block.

In the arrangement shown, the wedge of length 1 metre is pushed with an acceleration of 10sqrt3m//s^2 . It is seen that block starts climbing up the smooth incline face of the wedge. find the time taken by the block to reach the top. (g = 10 m//s^2)

Find the minimum acceleration of the wedge, so that the block is under free fall (assume all surfaces tivate v are smooth).
