A body of mass 10 kg is lying on a rough plane inclined at an angle of 30 o to the horizontal and the coefficient of friction is 0.5. the minimum force required to pull the body up the plane is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
F $= mg(\sin \theta + \mu \cos \theta)$
$= 10 \times 9.8(\sin 30^\circ + 0.5 \cos 30^\circ) = 91.4 \text{ N}.$
