Laws Of Motion Question 275

Question: Three blocks A, B and C of masses 4 kg, 2 kg and 1 kg respectively, are in contact on a motionless surface, as shown. If a force of 14 N is applied on the 4 kg block then the contact force between A

Options:

A) 6 N

B) 8 N

C) 18 N

D) 2 N

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

[a] Acceleration of system a=FnetMtotal

=144+2+1=147=2 m/m2

The contact force between A and B =(mB+mC)×a=(2+1)×2=6 N
