The coefficient of static friction between a wooden block of mass 0.5 kg and a vertical rough wall is 0.2. The magnitude of horizontal force that should be applied on the block to keep it adhere to the wall will be ____ N. $[g = 10 \, ms^{-2}]$
Correct Answer: 25
Explanation:
Ans. (25)
F.B.D. of the block is shown in the diagram Since block is at rest therefore
f r - m g = 0
$F - N = 0\tag{... (1}$
$f r \leq \mu N\tag{... (2}$
In limiting case

$f r = \mu N = \mu F\tag{... (3}$
Using equation (1) and (3)
$\therefore \mu F = m g$
$\Rightarrow F = \frac {0 . 5 \times 1 0}{0 . 2} = 2 5 N$

As shown in the figure, a block of mass $\sqrt{3}$ kg is kept on a horizontal rough surface of coefficient of friction $\frac{1}{3\sqrt{3}}$ . The critical force to be applied on the vertical surface as shown at an angle $60^{\circ}$ with horizontal such that it does not move, will be 3x. The value of x will be
$[g = 10m / s^2;\sin 60^\circ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2};\cos 60^\circ = \frac{1}{2} ]$
Correct Answer: 3
Explanation:
Ans. (3)
$F\cos 60^{\circ} = \mu N$ or $\frac{F}{2} = \frac{1}{3\sqrt{3}} N$
...(1)
and $N = \sin 60^{\circ} + \sqrt{3} g$
...(2)
From equation 1) and 2)
${\frac {F}{2}} = {\frac {1}{3 \sqrt {3}}} \left({\frac {F \sqrt {3}}{2}} + \sqrt {3} g\right)$
$\Rightarrow \quad F = g = 1 0 \mathrm{Newton} = 3 x$
So $x = \frac{10}{3} = 3.33$
$F\cos 60^{\circ} = \mu N$ or $\frac{F}{2} = \frac{1}{3\sqrt{3}} N$
...(1)
and $N = \sin 60^{\circ} + \sqrt{3} g$
...(2)
From equation 1) and 2)
${\frac {F}{2}} = {\frac {1}{3 \sqrt {3}}} \left({\frac {F \sqrt {3}}{2}} + \sqrt {3} g\right)$
$\Rightarrow \quad F = g = 1 0 \mathrm{Newton} = 3 x$
So $x = \frac{10}{3} = 3.33$

A boy of mass 4 kg is standing on a piece of wood having mass 5 kg. If the coefficient of friction between the wood and the floor is 0.5, the maximum force that the boy can exert on the rope so that the piece of wood does not move from its place is ____N. (Round off to the Nearest Integer) [Take $g = 10ms^{-2}$ ]
Correct Answer: 30
Explanation:
Ans. (30)
$N + T = 9 0$
$T = \mu N = 0.5 (9 0 - T)$
$1.5 T = 4 5$
$T = 3 0$
$N + T = 9 0$
$T = \mu N = 0.5 (9 0 - T)$
$1.5 T = 4 5$
$T = 3 0$

When a body slides down from rest along a smooth inclined plane making an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal, it takes time T. When the same body slides down from the rest along a rough inclined plane making the same angle and through the same distance, it takes time $\alpha T$ , where is $\alpha$ constant greater than 1. The co-efficient of friction between the body and the rough plane is $\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\left(\frac{\alpha^{2}-1}{\alpha^{2}}\right)$ where x = .........
Correct Answer: 3
Explanation:
Ans. (3)
On smooth incline
$a = g \sin 3 0 ^ {\circ}$
By $S = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$
$S = \frac {1}{2} \frac {g}{2} T ^ {2} = \frac {g}{4} T ^ {2}\tag{... (i}$
On rough incline
$a = g \sin 3 0 ^ {\circ} - \mu g \cos 3 0 ^ {\circ}$
By $S = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$
$S = \frac {1}{4} g (1 - \sqrt {3} \mu) (\alpha T) ^ {2}\tag{... (ii}$
By (i) and (ii)
$\frac {1}{4} g T ^ {2} = \frac {1}{4} g (1 - \sqrt {3} \mu) \alpha^ {2} T ^ {2}$




$\begin{array}{r l} \Rightarrow & 1 - \sqrt {3} \mu = \frac {1}{\alpha^ {2}} \\ \Rightarrow & \mu = \left(\frac {\alpha^ {2} - 1}{\alpha^ {2}}\right) \cdot \frac {1}{\sqrt {3}} \\ \Rightarrow & x = 3. 0 0 \end{array}$
On smooth incline
