Question 82
XE-DNAT2 marksNeeds review
A block of mass m = 10 kg is lying on an inclined plane PQ. The mass is restrained from sliding down the inclined plane by a force F. The coefficient of friction between the block and the inclined plane is 0.3. Take the acceleration due to gravity as 10 m/s
. The smallest force F (in N) required to prevent the block from sliding down is_____(rounded off to one decimal place).
