Question

l. A hand pushes a small block, which pushes a large block with greater mass. Both blocks are speeding up as they move to the right. There is friction but both have the same coefficient of friction, H. During this motion... a. the large block experiences greater friction than the small block b. the net force on the small block is equal to the force of the hand on the small block c. the amount of force with which the small block pushes on the big block is greater than that with which the large block pushes on the small block d. the net force on the large block is zero

Explanation / Answer

friction force = u*N

where u = coefficient of friction

N = normal force which will be equal to the weight of the object

so the friction force would be greater for the large block

so option a) the large block experiences greater friction than the small block .
