Q.

Two blocks each of mass 1kg are placed as shown. They are connected by a string which passes over a smooth (massless) pulley. There is no friction between m1 and the ground. The coefficient of friction between m1 and m2 is 0.2. A force F is applied to m2. Which of the following statements is/are correct?

Detailed Solution

Maximum value of friction between two blocks

fmax=0.2×1×10=2 N

Question Image

In critical case,

T=2 N F=T+2=4 N

System is in equilibrium, if

F-(T+2)=m2a=(1)(a)

T-2=m1a=(1)(a)

Question Image

Solving these two equations, we get

T=F2

Where F = 6N, T = 3N
