Q. The tension $T$ in the string shown in figure isPhysics Question Image

Laws of Motion

Solution:

$m g \sin \theta=10(10) \sin 30^{\circ}=50\, N$
Frictional force $=\mu \,mg\, \cos \theta$
$=(0.7)(10)(10) \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=35 \sqrt{3} N$
Frictional force is sufficient to oppose gravitational force.
Tension will be zero.
