A body of mass 50 kg is pulled by a rope oflength 6 m on a surface by a·force 106 N applied at the other e The linear density of the rope is 0.5 kg `m^(- 1)`. The force acting on 50 kg mass is

Options

A. 50N
B. 100N
C. 150 N
D. 200N

Answer

B

Explanation

Mass of the rope = `6 xx 1/2 = 3 kg`, Total mass of the system= 53 kg therefore a= `F/m= 2 ms^(-2)`
Force applied on the mass= 100 N.
