As we learnt

 

Minimum mass hung to start Motion -

When m1 is placed on table (rough) 

For liming condition

T=F_{l}

m_{2}g=\mu R

m_{2}g=\mu m_{1}g

m_{2}=\mu m_{1}

Also \mu=\frac{m_{2}}{m_{1}}

- wherein

T = Tension in string

F_{l}= Limiting friction

\mu= Coefficient of friction

 

        

 

For block A  not to move

?T=\mu m_{A}g

For block B

T= m_{B}g

for equilibrium

T =\mu m_{A}g=m_{B}g

m_{B}=\mu m_{A}=0.2*2=0.4kg
