Question

two blocks of masses m and M are connected by an inextensible light string When a constant horizontal force acts on the block of mass M the tension in the string is​

Answer 1

Answer:

The force is constant as given.

So the x component of the tension acting on the string we can consider that as the force.

So we know F=ma=(m+M)a

         =>a=F/(m+M)

Then Tcos theta=ma=mF/m+M(putting the value of a)

=>T=mF/(m+M)cos theta
