A block \(B\) of mass 0.8 kg and a particle \(P\) of mass 0.3 kg are connected by a light inextensible string inclined at \(10 ^ { \circ }\) to the horizontal. They are pulled across a horizontal surface with acceleration \(0.2 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 2 }\), by a horizontal force of 2 N applied to \(B\) (see diagram).
- Given that contact between \(B\) and the surface is smooth, calculate the tension in the string.
- Calculate the coefficient of friction between \(P\) and the surface.
