Question

derive the equation for atwood machine with diagram

Answer 1

Explanation:

The Atwood machine (or Atwood's machine) was invented in 1784 by the English mathematician George Atwood as a laboratory experiment to verify the mechanical laws of motion with constant acceleration. Atwood's machine is a common classroom demonstration used to illustrate principles of classical mechanics.

mass m1 and m2, connected by an inextensible massless string over an ideal massless pulley.[1]

Both masses experience uniform acceleration. When m1 = m2, the machine is in neutral equilibrium regardless of the position of the weights.
