The coefficient of friction between two surfaces is

u = 0.8. The tension in the string (a) ON(0) 4N(b) 6N(d) 8N​

Answered by admin @



Given:

The frictional force coefficient μ=0.8

To find:

The tension in the string

Solution:

The normal is acting upward and weight acting downward

As F=μN=μmgcosФ

F=0.8×1×10×cos(30)

F=6.928 N

So now the frictional also acting downward direction

mgsinФ=1×10×sin30

=5 N

So the downward force

mgsinФ=F+T

6.928=5+T

T=0

We have taken zero as the approx value of the tension on the string.

Option A is correct
