Question

In the arrangement shown in the figure, mass of the block B and A is 2m and m respectively. Surface between B and floor is smooth. The block B is connected to the block C by means of a string pulley system. If the whole system is released, then find the minimum value of mass of block C so that block A remains stationary w.r.t. B. Coefficient of friction between A and B is mu

  1. fraction numerator m over denominator mu end fraction    
  2. fraction numerator 2 m plus 1 over denominator mu plus 1 end fraction    
  3. fraction numerator 3 m over denominator mu minus 1 end fraction    
  4. fraction numerator 6 m over denominator mu plus 1 end fraction    

The correct answer is: fraction numerator 3 m over denominator mu minus 1 end fraction

Two blocks A and B each of same mass are attached by a thin inextensible string through an ideal pulley. Initially block B is held in position as shown in fig. Now the block B is released. Block A will slide to right and hit the pulley in time tA. Block B will swing and hit the surface in time tB. Assume the surface as frictionless. [Hint: Tension T in the string acting on both blocks is same in magnitude. Acceleration needed for horizontal motion is from T]
