Two blocks are kept on a smooth wedge which is fixed on a horizontal ground. What is the ratio `(m_(1))/(m_(2))` if system is in equilibrium ?

A

`(m_(1))/(m_(2))=sqrt(3)/(1)`

B

`(m_(1))/(m_(2))=(1)/sqrt(2)`

C

`(m_(1))/(m_(2))=(2)/sqrt(2)`

D

`(m_(2))/(m_(1))=sqrt(3)/(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a
For equilibrium `m_(1)g sin 30^(@)=T`
`T=m_(2)g sin 6`
