Question

In the arrangement shown in the fig. the block of mass m, lies on the wedge. Wedge is moving with
acceleration a = 5 m/sec2. Find the wedge acceleration of the block with respect to wedge.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Pythagoras and straight angel are equal

Answer 2

Answer:

First find out the force acting on the block of mass m and then take 60 degree angle into account.

F1=ma= m*5=5m

F2=ma'sin60degree=m*a'*1/2

Here,F1=F2

Then, 5m=ma'/2

a'=10m/sec
