A 3 kg block is placed over a 10 kg block and both are placed on a smooth horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction between the blocks is 0.2. If a horizontal force of 20 N is applied to 3 kg block, accelerations of the two blocks (in ms-2) are (Take, g = 10 ms-2)          [EAMCET 2013]

a
134,0.6
b
144,3
c
134,3
d
143,0.6

detailed solution

Correct option is D

We know that,   F-f=m aHere, for small body,   a1=20-0.2×3×103⇒  a1=143 ms-2Similarly,  0.2×3×10=10×a2⇒  a2=610=0.6 ms-2

A 40 kg slab rests on a frictionless floor as shown in the figure. A l0 kg block rests on the top of the slab. The static coefficient of friction between the block and slab is 0.60 while the kinetic friction is 0.40. The l0 kg block is acted upon by a horizontal force 100 N. If g = 9.8 m/s2, the resulting acceleration of the slab will be
