Question

A thin rod of length 1m is fixed in a vertical position inside a train, which is moving horizontally with constant acceleration 4ms2. A bead can slide on the rod, and friction coefficient between them is 1/2. If the bead is released from the rest at the top of the rod, find the time when it will reach at the bottom.

Solution

If mass of bead is m

mg - µN=ma

Now, N = pseudo force due to acceleration of train, which is equal to 4m Newton.

=> mg-µ(4m)=ma

=> g-4µ=a

=> a=8ms-2

Using, second equation of motion:

1= 0.5(8) t2

T= 0.5sec
