MCQ
A block of $7\,kg$ is placed on a rough horizontal surface and is pulled through a variable force $F$ (in $N$ ) $= 5\,t$ , where $'t'$ is time in second, at an angle of $37^o$ with the horizontal as shown in figure. The coefficient of static friction of the block with the surface is one. If the force starts acting at $t = 0\,s$ . Find the time at which the block starts to slide ......... $\sec$ (Take $g = 10\,m/s^2$ )
  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $7$
  • $10$
  • D
    $12$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$10$
c
The block begins to slide if

$\mathrm{F} \cos 37^{\circ}=\mu\left(\mathrm{mg}-\mathrm{F} \sin 37^{\circ}\right)$

$5 t\left[\cos 37^{\circ}+\mu \sin 37^{\circ}\right]=\mu \mathrm{mg}$

$5 t\left[\frac{4}{5}+\frac{3}{5}\right]=70$ or $t=10$ second
