Q.

A 40-kg slab rests on frictionless floor as shown in the figure. A 10-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. A horizontal force of 100 N acts upon the 10 kg block. The resulting acceleration of the slab will be
