Laws of MotionHard

Question

It the figure show a ring of mass M and a block of mass m are in equilibrium. The string is light and pulley P does not offer any friction and coefficient of friction between pole and M is Vμ. The frictional force offered by the pole on M is

Options

A.Mg directed up
B.mg μ directed up
C.(M-m) g directed down
D.μ mg direction down

Solution

Here ′M′ is  in equilibrium.
So net force on ′M′ must be zero.
∴ f = Mg (upwards)
