Block A of mass m rests on the plank B of mass 3m which is free to slide on a frictionless horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction between the block and plank is 0.2 . If a horizontal force of magnitude 2 mg is applied to the plank B, the acceleration of A relative to the plank and relative to the ground respectively, are:
 
  1. \(0, \frac{g}{2}\)
  2. \(0, \frac{2 g}{3}\)
  3. \(\frac{3 g}{5}, \frac{g}{5}\)
  4. \(\frac{g}{5}, \frac{2 g}{5}\)

Answer

(D) g 5 , 2 g 5
