A solid sphere of mass 10 kg is placed on a rough surface having coefficient of friction μ = 0.1. A constant force F = 7 N is applied along a line passing through the centre of the sphere as shown in the figure. The value of frictional force on the sphere is

 

a
1 N
b
2 N
c
3 N
d
7 N

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Let f be frictional force towards left for pure rolling.a = Rαwhere, a = F-fm = 7-f10          α = τI = fRI = fR25mR2 = 5f2mRHence, 7-f10 = 5f10    ⇒f = 2N
