Q.

A block of 7 kg is placed on a rough horizontal surface and is pulled through a variable force F(in N) = 5t, where ‘t’ is time in second, at an angle of 37° with the horizontal as shown in figure. The coefficient of static friction of  the block with the surface is one. If the force starts acting at t = 0 s, Find the time ( in second ) at which the block starts to slide. (Take g = 10 m/s2) :

Detailed Solution

The block begins to slide if
F cos 37° = µ (mg - F sin 37°)
5t [cos 37° + µ sin 37°] = µ mg
5t45+35=70  or  t=10 second
