A metal block is resting on a rough wooden surface. A horizontal force applied to the block is increased uniformly. Which of the following curves correctly represents velocity of the block ?
What is friction ? What is impending motion ?
A block pressed against the vertical wall is in equilibrium. The minimum coefficient of friction is:-
Aball of mass $m$ is thrown vertically upwards.Assume the force of air resistance has magnitude proportional to the velocity, and direction opposite to the velocity's. At the highest point, the ball's acceleration is
A block of mass $M$ is held against a rough vertical well by pressing it with a finger. If the coefficient of friction between the block and the wall is $\mu $ and acceleration due to gravity is $g$, calculate the minimum force required to be applied by the finger to hold the block against the wall.
A rope of length $L$ and mass $M$ is being pulled on a rough horizontal floor by a constant horizontal force $F$ = $Mg$ . The force is acting at one end of the rope in the same direction as the length of the rope. The coefficient of kinetic friction between rope and floor is $1/2$ . Then, the tension at the midpoint of the rope is
