Question
A block of mass m is in contact with the cart C as shown in the figure
The coefficience of static friction between the block and the cart is μ. The accleration α of the cart that will prevent the block from falling stisfies
The coefficience of static friction between the block and the cart is μ. The accleration α of the cart that will prevent the block from falling stisfies
Options
A.
B.
C.
D.
Solution
α ← Pseudo acceleration
Pseudo force or fictious force, Ffic = mα
Force of friction, = μN = μmα
The block of mass m will not fall as long as
f ≥ mg
μmα ≥ mg
α ≥
