Question Number 18963 by Tinkutara last updated on 02/Aug/17

Two blocks A and B each of mass 1 kg  are placed on a smooth horizontal  surface. Two horizontal forces 5 N and  10 N are applied on the blocks A and B  respectively as shown in figure. The  block A does not slide on block B. Then  the normal reaction between the two  block is

$$\mathrm{Two}\:\mathrm{blocks}\:{A}\:\mathrm{and}\:{B}\:\mathrm{each}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{mass}\:\mathrm{1}\:\mathrm{kg} \\ $$$$\mathrm{are}\:\mathrm{placed}\:\mathrm{on}\:\mathrm{a}\:\mathrm{smooth}\:\mathrm{horizontal} \\ $$$$\mathrm{surface}.\:\mathrm{Two}\:\mathrm{horizontal}\:\mathrm{forces}\:\mathrm{5}\:\mathrm{N}\:\mathrm{and} \\ $$$$\mathrm{10}\:\mathrm{N}\:\mathrm{are}\:\mathrm{applied}\:\mathrm{on}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{blocks}\:{A}\:\mathrm{and}\:{B} \\ $$$$\mathrm{respectively}\:\mathrm{as}\:\mathrm{shown}\:\mathrm{in}\:\mathrm{figure}.\:\mathrm{The} \\ $$$$\mathrm{block}\:{A}\:\mathrm{does}\:\mathrm{not}\:\mathrm{slide}\:\mathrm{on}\:\mathrm{block}\:{B}.\:\mathrm{Then} \\ $$$$\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{normal}\:\mathrm{reaction}\:\mathrm{between}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{two} \\ $$$$\mathrm{block}\:\mathrm{is} \\ $$

F_2 −F_1 =2ma   and     F_2 −Nsin α=ma  ⇒2Nsin α=2F_2 −(F_2 −F_1 )  Nsin α=((F_1 +F_2 )/2)  for α=30° , F_1 =5N ,  F_2 =10N    Normal force  N=15newtons

$$\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{1}} =\mathrm{2ma} \\ $$$$\:\mathrm{and}\:\:\:\:\:\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{Nsin}\:\alpha=\mathrm{ma} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{2Nsin}\:\alpha=\mathrm{2F}_{\mathrm{2}} −\left(\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{1}} \right) \\ $$$$\mathrm{Nsin}\:\alpha=\frac{\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{1}} +\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{for}\:\alpha=\mathrm{30}°\:,\:\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{1}} =\mathrm{5N}\:,\:\:\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{10N} \\ $$$$\:\:\mathrm{Normal}\:\mathrm{force}\:\:\mathrm{N}=\mathrm{15newtons} \\ $$
