A man of mass m pulls a block with mass M with a rope. The block moves towards the right direction as shown in the figure below:

The magnitude of friction is the same between the man and the ground and between the block and the ground. If T is the tension on the rope, f is the frictional force acting on the block, which of the following expression correctly depicts the force experienced by the block ?

Q. A system is shown in the figure. A man standing on the block is pulling the rope. If the man pulls

2 m

of the rope in each second, then the velocity of the block will be
[Assume that the block does not rotate and rope is inextensible.]

Q. Figure shows a man of mass

Q. Figure shows a man standing stationary with respect to a horizontal conveyor belt that is accelerating with

1 m s^{- 2}

. What is the net force on the man? If the coefficient of static friction between the man's shoes and the belt is

0.2

, up to what acceleration of the belt can the man continue to be stationary relative to the belt? (Mass of the man

= 65 k g

)

Figure 5.18 shows a man standing stationary with respect to a horizontal conveyor belt that is accelerating with $1 m s^{- 2}$ . What is the net force on the man? If the coefficient of static friction between the man's shoes and the belt is 0.2, up to what acceleration of the belt can the man continue to be stationary relative to the belt? (Mass of the man = 65 kg.)
