Question

Two blocks of masses $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ 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 friction between $m_{1}$ and inclined plane is $μ_{1}$ and between $m_{2}$ and the inclined plane is $μ_{2}$ . The tension in the string shall continue to remain zero if

Solution

The correct option is C $μ_{1} > t a n α a n d μ_{2} > t a n β$
For zero tension the maximum friction should be greater then downwards sliding force.
SO, $μ_{1} m g c o s α > m g s i n α \Rightarrow μ_{1} > t a n α$
Similarly, $μ_{2} > t a n β$

Q. Figure (6−E6) shows two blocks in contact sliding down an inclined surface of inclination 30°. The friction coefficient between the block of mass 2.0 kg and the incline is μ₁, and that between the block of mass 4.0 kg and incline is μ₂. Calculate the acceleration of the 2.0 kg block if (a) μ₁ = 0.20 and μ₂ = 0.30, (b) μ₁ = 0.30 and μ₂= 0.20. Take g = 10 m/s².
