In the figure a truck is moving on a horizontal surface with acceleration a. Two blocks of equal masses m are supported on the truck as shown in figure. Given that when the block at the top surface is just about to slide, other block remains hanging at 30^(@) from the vertical. In this system.

Answer»

`a=(g)/(sqrt(3))`
`T=(2)/(sqrt(3))MG`
`MU=(5-sqrt(3))/(3sqrt(3))`
`T=(sqrt(3))/(2)mg`

Solution :`T sin 30^(@)=ma …..(1)`
`T cos 30^(@)=mg …….(2)`

dividing equation `(1)` by equation `(2)`
`tan 30^(@)=(a)/(g)`
`rArr a=gtan 30^(@)`
`rArr a=(g)/(sqrt(3))` Ans.
From `(2)T=(mg)/(cos 30^(@))=(2MG)/(sqrt(3))`Ans.
and `mu mg-T=ma`
`rArr mu mg=T+ma=(2mg)/(sqrt(3))+ma`
`=(2mg)/(sqrt(3))+(mg)/(sqrt(3))`
`rArr mumg=(3MG)/(sqrt(3))=sqrt(3)mg`
`=mu=sqrt(3) Ans.`
