If the coefficient of friction between wedge and block is , the maximum horizontal acceleration of the wedge for which the block will remain at rest with respect to the wedge is


A block of mass is resting on a rough horizontal surface for which the coefficient of friction is . When the force is applied, the acceleration of the block will be



A force of is applied to a block of mass to prevent it from sliding on a plane with an inclination angle with the horizontal. If the coefficients of static friction and kinetic friction between the block and the plane are and , respectively, then the frictional force acting on the block is

Two blocks of masses and connected by a string are placed gently over a fixed inclined plane, such that the tension in the connecting string is initially zero. The coefficient of the friction between and inclined plane is , between and the inclined plane is . The tension in the string shall remain zero if
