Acceleration of Block on Horizontal Smooth Surface

Category : JEE Main & Advanced

(1) When a pull is horizontal

R = mg

and F = ma

\[\therefore \] a = F/m    

(2) When a pull is acting at an angle \[(\theta )\] to the horizontal (upward)

R + F sin \[\theta \] = mg

\[\Rightarrow \] R = mg - F sin \[\theta \]

and  F cos \[\theta \] = ma

\[\therefore \] \[a=\frac{F\cos \theta }{m}\]    

(3) When a push is acting at an angle \[(\theta )\] to the horizontal (downward)

R = mg + F sin \[\theta \]

and F cos \[\theta \] = ma

\[a=\frac{F\cos \theta }{m}\]
