4-2.Friction
medium

Two blocks $( m =0.5\, kg$ and $M =4.5\, kg$ ) are arranged on a horizontal frictionless table as shown in figure. The coefficient of static friction between the two blocks is $\frac{3}{7} .$ Then the maximum horizontal force that can be applied on the larger block so that the blocks move together is ......... $N.$ (Round off to the Nearest Integer) [Take g as $9.8\, ms ^{-2}$ ]

Solution

$a_{\max }=\mu g=\frac{3}{7} \times 9.8$

$F =( M + m ) a _{\max }=5 a _{\max }$

$=21$ Newton
