A block `A` with mass 100kg is resting on another block `B` of mass 200kg. As shown in figure a horizontal rope tied to a wall hold it. The coefficient of friction between `A` and `B` is `0.2` while coefficient of friction between `B` and the ground is `0.3` . the minimum required force `F` to start moving `B` will be. A. 900 NB. 200 NC. 1100 ND. 700 N

Answer» Correct Answer - C
(c ) Friction force between block A and block B and between bock B and surface will oppose the F
` therefore F=F_(AB)+F_(BS)`
`=mu_(AB) m_(A)g+ mu _(BS) (m_(A)+m_(B))g`
`=0.2xx100xx10+0.3(100+200)10`
`=200+900=1100N`
This is the required minimum force to move the block B.
