A body of mass
is moving on a rough horizontal plane. A block of mass
is connected to the
mass by a string of negligible mass through a smooth pulley as shown in the below figure. The tension in the string is
. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the heavier mass and the surface is 

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B

Given, tension in string
Mass 

Let acceleration of the block be
.

From the free body diagram of body of mass
.


Coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.035 .
