A block of mass m is placed on another block of mass M which itself is lying on a horizontal surface .The coefficient of friction between two blocks is $μ_{1}$ and that between the blocks of mass M and horizontal surface is $μ_{2} .$ What maximum horizontal force (in N) can be applied to the lower block so that the two blocks move without separation? $(g i v e n μ_{1} = 0.2 μ_{2} = 0.3$ $m = 2 k g M = 5 k g g = 10 m s^{- 2})$

Detailed Solution

Frictional force Acting on the upper block of m should not be more than the Limiting friction

$f_{m} = μ_{1} m g .$

$\Rightarrow a = μ_{1} g$ ...(1)

Let the system moves with Acceleration a . Then for whole system:

$F - μ_{2} (M + m) g = (M + m) a$

using (1)

we get $F = (μ_{1} + μ_{2}) (M + m) g$

F=35 N
