Question 11. A scooter starting from rest moves with a constant acceleration for a time Δ t1, then with a constant velocity for the next Δ t2, and finally with a constant deceleration. A person of mass 50 kg on the scooter, behind the driver manages to stay at rest with respect to the scooter without touching any other part. The force exerted by the seat on the man is
Take g=10m/ s2
Take g=10m/ s2
Answer: Option D. -> > 500 N for time △ t1 and △ t3, and 500 N for △ t2,
:
D
So when scooter is accelerating the man is also accelerating along with it so friction from the scooter's seat on man is making him move forward.
Also there is a Normal force
N = mg = 500 N
So Net force while accelerating will be √(500)2+(fr)2> 500
Same is true about decelerating
So while accelerating or decelerating the force on man by scooter is more than 500N. When the scooter is going with constant velocity, the man is also going with constant velocity. So 0 acceleration in horizontal direction so no net force in horizontal direction so no friction.
Only Normal N = mg = 500

Answer: Option B. -> decrease
:
B
Now if the angle made by Fcand the vertical decreases then horizontal componenet decreases
As you can see the horizontal component decreases, Which in this case turns out to be frictional force.
Yes the magnitude of frictional force depends upon the angle made by Contact force and the Vertical/Horizontal
