engineering recuitment GATE CE 2023-24 Test Series Engineering Mechanics Equilibrium and Friction Friction
A block of mass m rests on an inclined plane and is attached by a string to the wall as shown in the figure. The coefficient of static friction between the plane and the block is 0.25. The string can withstand a maximum force of 20 N. The maximum value of the mass (m) for which the string will not break and the block will be in static equilibrium is ______ kg.
Take cos θ = 0.8 and sin θ = 0.6
Acceleration due to gravity g = 10 m/s2
