Two masses 3 kg and 2 kg are suspended from the ends of a light string which is passing over a frictionless pulley. If pulley is pulled up with an acceleration g, then the magnitude of acceleration of the blocks w.r.t the pulley will be:
1) 2g/5
2)g/5
3)3g/5
4)4g/5
Answers
Answer:
2
Explanation:
hope this is Helpful to u
plz check the answere
Given :
Masses of two bodies are 3 kg and 5 kg.
Acceleration = g
To solve :
Magnitude of acceleration of the blocks with respect to the pulley.
Solution :
It is given that two masses of 3 and 2 kg are connected to a string passing through pully.
Let
m = 2 kg
M = 3 kg
Pully is frictionless it means there is no frictional force between pully and string.
in the given figure :
here m < M
Let the the direction of acceleration is downward from 3 kg mass.
So
mass of the system M° = m + M = 2 +3 = 5 kg
So
Force on M mass :
Mg - T = Ma
where T = Tension on string.
a = acceleration of system.
So
3g - T = 3 a (equation 1)
similarly
Force on mass m :
T - mg = ma
T - 2g = 2a (equation 2)
Adding equation 1 and 2 :
3g - 2g = 3a + 2a
g = 5a
so
So,
Correct option is (2)
