Answer on Question # 46927, Physics, Mechanics | Kinematics | Dynamics
Task:
The spring balance which will give the most accurate reading on using it in the exp. To establish relationship between the weight of rectangular wooden block lying on a horizontal table and the force required to just move it should have the least count
B. 5 g weight
D. 0.5 g weight
A. 1 g weight
C. 2 g weight
Answer:
When body is at rest,
Normal reaction = weight of the body
Applied force = force of friction
Suppose a body of mass ‘m’ is moving by the application of a force ‘F’, then the produced acceleration ‘a’ will be directly proportional to the applied force.
when force (F) increased to a certain value such that the body starts moving in the direction of applied force, then Applied force > force of friction.
relationship between the weight of rectangular wooden block lying on a horizontal table and the force required to just move : F/μ>mg, μ is coefficient of friction of block with the surface(μ=0.25) so answer is D. 0.5 g weight.
