A horizontal force of 12N is applied to 1.5kg of block which rests on a horizontal surface. If the coefficient friction is 0.3, find the acceleration produced in the block. (take g=10m/s^2). Class 11 Physics
Please answer asap!! ​

7 m/s²

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were:

Force applied (Fₐ) = 15 N

Mass (m) of block = 1.5 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.3

Acceleration (a) of block =?

Next, we shall determine the frictional force. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) of block = 1.5 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.3

Normal reaction (R) = mg = 1.5 × 10 = 15 N

Frictional force (Fբ) =?

Fբ = μR

Fբ = 0.3 × 15

Fբ = 4.5 N

Next, we shall determine the net force acting on the block. This can be obtained as follow:

Force applied (Fₐ) = 15 N

Frictional force (Fբ) = 4.5 N

Net force (Fₙ) =.?

Fₙ = Fₐ – Fբ

Fₙ = 15 – 4.5

Fₙ = 10.5 N

Finally, we shall determine the acceleration produced in the block. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) of block = 1.5 Kg

Net force (Fₙ) = 10.5 N

Acceleration (a) of block =?

Fₙ = ma

10.5 = 1.5 × a

Divide both side by a

a = 10.5 / 1.5

a = 7 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration produced in the block is 7 m/s²

the answer is f1 and d2 because if you put equal force on those two points the beam would balance trust me on this
