A block of mass 10 kg placed on rough horizontal surface having coefficient of friction μ=0.5\mu=0.5, if a horizontal force of 100 N acting on it then acceleration of the block will be

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 10 m/s2\text{m/s}^2
  • B 5 m/s2\text{m/s}^2
  • C 15 m/s2\text{m/s}^2
  • D 0.5 m/s2\text{m/s}^2.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

m = 10 kg, R = mg _ Frictional force = f k = _ k R = _ k m g = 0.5 _ 10 _ 10 = 50 N [g = 10 m/sec 2 ] _ Net force acting on the body = F = P � f k = 100 � 50 = 50 N. _ Acceleration of the block = a = F/m = 50/10 = 5 m/sec 2 .
