Current Question (ID: 19128)

Question:
$\text{A block of mass } m \text{ is placed on a surface with a vertical cross section given by } y = \frac{x^3}{6}. \text{ If the coefficient of friction is } 0.5, \text{ then the maximum height above the ground at which the block can be placed without slipping is:}$
Options:
  • 1. $\frac{2}{3} m$
  • 2. $\frac{1}{3} m$
  • 3. $\frac{1}{2} m$
  • 4. $\frac{1}{6} m$
Solution:
$\text{Hint: Balance forces along normal and tangential directions.}$ $N = mg \cos \theta$ $f_{\text{max}} = \mu Mg \cos \theta$ $\text{for limiting equilibrium,}$ $\mu mg \cos \theta = mg \sin \theta$ $\mu = \tan \theta$ $\text{as } y = \frac{x^3}{6} \text{ (given)}$ $\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{6} (3x^2)$ $\tan \theta = \frac{x^2}{2}$ $\mu = \tan \theta$ $0.5 = \frac{x^2}{2}$ $x = \pm 1$ $\text{So, from equation (1)}$ $y = \frac{1}{6} m$
