Question
A man of mass 50 kg is pulling on a plank of mass 100 kg kept on a smooth floor as shown with force of 100 N. If both man & plank move together, find force of friction acting on man.


Options
A.
N toward left
B.
N toward right
C.
N toward left
D.
N toward right
Solution
For man For plank


T - f = 50a T + f = 100a
⇒ 2T = 150 a ⇒ a =
ms-2
∵ T - f = 50 a ∴ 100 - f = 50 ×
⇒ f =
N toeards left


T - f = 50a T + f = 100a
⇒ 2T = 150 a ⇒ a =
∵ T - f = 50 a ∴ 100 - f = 50 ×
⇒ f =
