A block of mass is placed on a smooth inclined wedge ABC of inclination as shown in the figure. The wedge is given an acceleration ' ' towards the right. The relation between and for the block to remain stationary on the wedge is:

- A
- B
- C
- D
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
In the non-inertial frame of the wedge:Forces acting on the block are gravity ( down), normal force (), and pseudo force ( towards left).For the block to be stationary relative to the wedge, components along the incline must balance:
