A block of mass is placed over another block of mass , which is placed over a smooth horizontal floor. The coefficient of friction between and is . When a horizontal force of magnitude is applied on , the acceleration of blocks and are



Important Questions on Newton's Laws of Motion (With Friction)
Two blocks and tied together with an inextensible string are placed at rest on a rough horizontal surface with coefficient of friction . The block is pulled with a variable force at a varying angle with the horizontal. The value of at which the least value of is required to move the blocks is given by


In the given figure, the tension in the rope (rope is light) is


A block of mass , lying on a horizontal plane, is acted upon by a horizontal force and another force , inclined at an angle to the vertical. The block will remain in equilibrium if the coefficient of friction between it and the surface is (assume )

A solid block of mass is resting inside a cube as shown in figure. The cube is moving with a velocity . If the coefficient of friction between the surface of cube and block is , then the force of friction between the block and cube is


A trolley has a simple pendulum suspended from a frame fixed to its desk. A block is in contact on its vertical side. The trolley is on horizontal rails and accelerates towards the right such that the block is just prevented from falling. The value of coefficient of friction between and is . The inclination of the pendulum to the vertical is
