Question

A block is placed over a plank. The coefficient of friction between the block and the plank is μ = 0.2. Initially both are at rest. suddenly the plank starts moving with acceleration a0 = 4 m/s2. The displacement of the block in 1 s is (g = 10m/s2)

Options

A.1 m relative to ground
B.1 m relative to plank
C.zero relative to plank
D.2 m relative to ground

Solution

Acceleration  of block w.r.t plank
= 2ms-2
Acceleration of block w.r.t plank = a = 2ms-2
Now s = ut + at2 gives s = (2)(1)2 = 1 m (w.r.t ground & w.r.t. plank )
