A block of mass m1=1 kg another mass m2=2 kg are placed together (see figure) on an inclined plane with the angle of inclination θ. Various values θ are given in List I. The coefficient of friction between the block m1 and the plane is always zero. The coefficient of static and dynamic friction between the block m2 and the plane is equal toμ=0.3. In Listll, an expression for the friction on block m2 given. Match the correct expression of the friction in List II with the angles given in List 1 and choose the correct option. The acceleration due to gravity is denoted by g [useful information: tan5.5°0.1; tan11.5°0.2; tan16.5°0.3]

Assertion: While drawing a line on a paper, friction force acts on paper in the same direction along which line is drawn on the paper.

Reason: Friction always opposes motion.

Assertion: A man and a block rest on smooth horizontal surface. The man holds a rope which is connected to block. The man cannot move on the horizontal surface.

Question Image

Reason: A man standing at rest on smooth horizontal surface can start walking due to absence of friction (the man is only in contact with floor as shown).

Assertion : A block of mass m kg is kept on rough fixed horizontal surface as shown. The coefficient of friction between block and horizontal surface is μ=0.1. Then the magnitude of minimum horizontal force required to move the block is m Newton (Take g=10 m/s2 )

Question Image

Reason : A block is kept on fixed rough horizontal surface. The limiting value of friction force is given by μN, where μ is coefficient of kinetic friction (between the block and the horizontal surface) and N is normal reaction on block due to horizontal surface.

A block A of mass m1 rests on a horizontal table. A light string connected to it passes over a frictionless pulley at the edge of table and from its other end another block B of mass m2 is suspended. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the table is μk. When the block A is sliding on the table, the tension in the string is:
