a small block of mass m is kept at the left end of a larger block of mass M and length L. the system can slide on a horizontal road.the system is started towards right with with an initial velocity v.the friction coefficient between road and bigger block is n1. and that between the blocks is n2. (n2

NOW here /.
as smaller block be ,mass = m
and bigger block = M ...length of M block = L
now seeing FBD ..due to friction both the block hv some jerk ..
see ..let M moving forward with accn = a2
and m with a1 ...due to jerk (pseudo force.)
now a1> a2 ..so that the ....block get disconnected ..
hence now for m block
S( m ) = vt + 1/2 a1 t^2
S (M) = vt + 1/2 a2 t^2
now as block m moves L distance more so .
vt + 1/2a1 t^2 = vt + 1/2 a2 t^2 + L.........................................(1) => a1t^2 = a2t^2 + L
now considering frictiona force and FBD of both blocks ..
for block m ....eqn
m a1 + n1mg = 0
hence ma1 =-- n1mg
and for bigger block ..M eqn
M a2 + n2 ( m + M ) g - n1 mg = 0
a2 = ( n1 - n2 ) mg + n2 Mg / M
so now we hav a2 and a1 ...both ..
putting values in ..eqn we get value of t
i hope u can getthat value on ur own..!
BEST OF LUCK..













koi plz.. thoda sa kasht karke....explain kar do mere mechanics ke questions
