Question
Solve the previous problem if the friction coefficient between the 2.0kg block and the plane below it is 0.5 and the plane below the 4.0kg block is frictionless.

Answer


m1 = 4kg, m2 = 2kg

Frictional co-efficient between 2kg block and surface = 0.5

R = 10cm = 0.1m

I = 0.5kg-m2

$\text{m}_1\text{g}\sin\theta-\text{T}_1=\text{m}_1\text{a}\ \dots(1)$

$\text{T}_2-(\text{m}_2\text{g}\sin\theta+\mu\text{m}_2\text{g}\cos\theta)=\text{m}_2\text{a}\ \dots(2)$

$(\text{T}_1-\text{T}_2)=\frac{\text{la}}{\text{r}^2}$

Adding equation (1) and (2) we will get

$\text{m}_1\text{g}\sin\theta-(\text{m}_2\text{g}\sin\theta+\mu\text{m}_2\text{g}\cos\theta)+(\text{T}_1+\text{T}_2)=\text{m}_1\text{a}+\text{m}_2\text{a}$

$\Rightarrow4\times9.8\times\Big(\frac{1}{\sqrt2}\Big)-\Big\{\Big(2\times9.8\times\Big(\frac{1}{\sqrt2}\Big)+0.5\times2\times9.8\times\Big(\frac{1}{\sqrt2}\Big)\Big\}$

$=\Big(4+2+\frac{0.5}{0.01}\Big)\text{a}$

$\Rightarrow27.80-(13.90+6.95)=65\text{a}$

$\Rightarrow\text{a}=0.125\text{ms}^{-2}$

A parallel plate capacitor is to be designed with a voltage rating 1kV, using a material of dielectric constant 3 and dielectric strength about 107Vm–1. (Dielectric strength is the maximum electric field a material can tolerate without breakdown, i.e., without starting to conduct electricity through partial ionisation.) For safety, we should like the field never to exceed, say 10% of the dielectric strength. What minimum area of the plates is required to have a capacitance of 50pF?
