Two smooth blocks are placed at a smooth corner as shown in figure. Both the blocks are having mass m. We apply a force F on the block A. Block A presses block B in the normal direction, due to which pressing force on vertical wall will increase and pressing force on the horizontal wall decreases, as we increase `F (theta = 37^(@)` with horizontal).
A soon as the pressing force on the horizontal wall by block B becomes zero, it will lose contact with ground. If the value of F further increases, block B will accelerate in the upward direction and simultaneously block A will move towards right

If the acceleration of block A is a rightwards, then the acceleration of block B will

A

`(3a)/(4),upwards`

B

`(4a)/(3),upwards`

C

`(3a)/(5),upwards`

D

`(4a)/(5),upwards`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

For equilibrium of block A
`F = N sin theta`, `N = F // sin theta`
To lift block B from ground
`N cos theta ge m g` `implies (F)/(sin theta) cos theta ge mg`
`F ge m g tan theta = m g ((3)/(4))` So, `F_("min") = (3)/(4) mg`
