Q.

A block of mass 10kg is initially at rest on a horizontal rough surface. At a time t = 0, a time dependent force (F) acts on it horizontally as shown in the figure. Force (F) stops acting at t = 7 seconds. Consider that coefficient of static and kinetic friction both are equal to 0.5 andg=10ms2 .

Detailed Solution

Block will start moving at F = 25 t

μ=mg,

25t=0.5×10×10

Velocity is maximum t>4sec

dudt=25t5010

0vmaxdu=24(2.5t5)dt

vmax=5m/s

KE=12×10×25=125J

For 4s and <t<7sec

a=405010=1m/sec2

v=51(3)=2m/sec

a2=5010=5m/sec2

t=v|a2|=25=0.4sec

Total time =(42)+(74)+0.4

=2+3+0.4=5.4sec
