Question

the force f needed to keep the block at equilibrium in given figure is​

Answer 1

Answer:  $(3) \frac{Mg}{2}$

Explanation:

1) Let the tension in the string be 'T' .

Since, net force along the string is 0.

=> F-T=0

=> F=T

2) Now,

Tension is constant along the string .

=> Tension on both sides of pulley is 'T'.

We need, to find the value of 'F'  to keep the system in equilibrium .

=> Net force on pulley must be 0.

=> 2T-Mg = 0

=> T = mg/2.

Hence, the value of F=T=Mg/2.

Answer 2

Answer:

MG÷2 HOW men's let the T=mg (F) tension in both sides of pulley is T+T=2T =F=mg÷2
