Questions  

A block of mass 2kgslides down the face of a smooth 45o wedge of mass 9 kg as shown in the figure. The wedge is placed on a frictionless horizontal surface. Determine the acceleration of the wedge. 

a
2m/s2
b
112m/s2
c
1m/s2
d
none of these

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Suppose a is the acceleration of block w.r.t. wedge.For block:N+mAsin⁡45∘=mgcos⁡45∘     .....(i)For wedge: Nsin⁡45∘=MA    .......(ii)From (i) and (ii) A=1m/s2
