    A 30 kg box has to move up an inclined slope of \[30{}^\circ \] to the horizontal at a uniform velocity of 5 m/s. If the frictional force retarding the motion is 250 N the horizontal force in newtons to move up is\[(g=10\text{ }m/{{s}^{2}})\]:

    A)  400 \[\sqrt{2}\]N                            

    B)  400 N

    C)  \[\frac{400\sqrt{3}}{2}N\]                          

    D)  \[400\times 2\sqrt{3}N\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     A box is moving with a uniform velocity, then the force acting on the body is given by \[F=mg\sin \theta +\mu mg\cos \theta \] \[=30\times 10\times \sin {{30}^{o}}+250\] \[=30\times 10\times \frac{1}{2}+250=400\] Now, horizontal component of force is given by \[F=\cos \theta =400\times \cos {{30}^{0}}=\frac{400\sqrt{3}}{2}N\]
