A body B lies on a smooth horizontal table and another body A is placed on B. The coefficient of friction between A and B is µ. What acceleration given to B will cause slipping to occur between A and B
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsA
There is no friction between the body B and surface of the table. If the body B is pulled with force F then
Due to this force upper body A will feel the pseudo force in a backward direction.
But due to friction between A and B, body will not move. The body A will start moving when pseudo force is more than friction force.
i.e. for slipping,
