Q.

Two blocks A and B of mass m and 2m are placed on a fixed triangular wedge by  massless inextensible string as shown. The pulley is massless and frictionless. The coefficient of friction between blocks A and the wedge is 2/3 and that between B and the wedge is 1/3  (Take m=1kg, g =10ms2)

Question Image   
 Given  μ1=23  and   μ2=13
f1(max)=μ1N1=23mgcosθ=23×1×10×12=1023

        f2max=μ2N2=13(2mgcosθ)=1023 
 Maximum friction between B and the wedge is  f2(max)=1023units
 (Dr)
Total maximum friction on the system  is fmax=1023+1023=2023  
 Net pulling force =  F=mgsinθ=1×10×12=52
 Since F < f max system will be at rest since friction is not sufficient to keep A and B at rest individually , tension must   not be zero for tension to appear at least  one of the blocks must be in limiting  equilibrium.  Then f2=f2(max)=1023  
  Tension in the string  T=2mgsinθT2
T=1021023=2023    (Ct)   
Force  of friction between A and the wedge  is f1=Tmgsinθ=212352

  f1=523=1032(Aq)
