The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the minimum force \( F \) required to move a body of mass \( 10 \, \text{kg} \) on a rough surface when the force is applied at an angle of \( 30^\circ \) above the horizontal. The angle of friction is also \( 30^\circ \). ### Step 1: Identify the forces acting on the body - The weight of the body \( W = mg = 10 \, \text{kg} \times 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 = 100 \, \text{N} \) acts downwards. - The normal force \( N \) acts perpendicular to the surface. - The applied force \( F \) can be resolved into two components: - Horizontal component: \( F \cos(30^\circ) \) - Vertical component: \( F \sin(30^\circ) \) ### Step 2: Write the equations for vertical forces The vertical forces must balance for the body to move: \[ N + F \sin(30^\circ) = mg \] Substituting the known values: \[ N + F \cdot \frac{1}{2} = 100 \] Thus, we can express the normal force \( N \): \[ N = 100 - \frac{F}{2} \] ### Step 3: Determine the frictional force The frictional force \( f \) can be expressed using the normal force and the coefficient of friction. The coefficient of friction \( \mu \) is given by: \[ \mu = \tan(30^\circ) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \] The frictional force \( f \) is: \[ f = \mu N = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} N \] Substituting for \( N \): \[ f = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \left(100 - \frac{F}{2}\right) \] ### Step 4: Set up the equation for horizontal forces For the body to just start moving, the horizontal component of the applied force must equal the frictional force: \[ F \cos(30^\circ) = f \] Substituting the known values: \[ F \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \left(100 - \frac{F}{2}\right) \] ### Step 5: Solve for \( F \) Now we can solve for \( F \): \[ F \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = \frac{100}{\sqrt{3}} - \frac{F}{2\sqrt{3}} \] Multiplying through by \( 2\sqrt{3} \) to eliminate the fractions: \[ F \cdot 3 = 200 - F \] Rearranging gives: \[ 3F + F = 200 \] \[ 4F = 200 \] \[ F = 50 \, \text{N} \] ### Conclusion The minimum magnitude of force \( F \) required to move the body is \( 50 \, \text{N} \). ---

To solve the problem, we need to find the minimum force \( F \) required to move a body of mass \( 10 \, \text{kg} \) on a rough surface when the force is applied at an angle of \( 30^\circ \) above the horizontal.
