PhysicsEasysingle choice

A block of massmis stationary with respect to the wedge of massMmoving with uniform speedvon horizontal surface. Work done by friction force on the block intseconds is

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:


Since block doesn't move with respect towedge, so friction force should balance the component of weight along the inclined plane.
f=mg sinθ

Component of displacement along the inclined plane in timetis given byvtcosθ
Work done byf= mg sinθ cosθ vt

=  mg sin2θ2v ×t
