A system of two blocks of masses m = 2 kg and M = 8 kg is placed on a smooth table as shown in figure. The coefficient of static friction between two blocks is 0.5. The maximum horizontal force F that can be applied to the block of mass M so that the blocks move together will be :
Multiple Choice Options
- A 9.8 N
- B 39.2 N
- C 49 N
- D 78.4 N
Step-by-Step Verified Solution

amax = g
= 0.5 9.8 = 4.9 m/s2
Fmax = (8 + 2) 4.9 = 49 N
