Question

A force of 5 newton produces an acceleration of 8 m/s square on a mass m1, and a acceleration of 24 m/s square on a mass m2. what acceleration would the same provide if both the masses are tied together?

proper solution required.....

Answer 1

We know, F = ma

m1 = 5/8 kg

m2 = 5/24 kg

If the masses are tied, total mass, M = m1+ m2= 5/6 kg

Acceleration produced, a = 5/(5/6) = 6m/s2 

Answer 2

Heya!
--------

===========================================================

♦We know that ,
==============


=> F = m• a

Given that =>
---------------


m1 × 8 = 5

m1 = 5/8...........(1)


m2 × 24 = 5

m2 => 5/24............(2)


➡If these masses are tied together ,


M = ( m1 + m2 )

M = ( 5/24 + 5/8 )

M =>20/24


Now ,


F = m•a

5 = 20/24 × a

Acceleration => 6m/s²
