Three blocks A, B and C weighing 1, 8 and 27 kg respectively are connected as shown in the figure with an inextensible string and are moving on a smooth surface. T 3 is equal to 36 N. Then T 2 is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
\(\mathrm{T}_2 = \left( \mathrm{m}_A + \mathrm{m}_B \right)\) × \(\frac{T_{2}}{m_{A} + m_{B} + m_{C}}\)
\(\mathrm{T}_2 = (1 + 8) \times \frac{36}{(1 + 8 + 27)} = 9 \, \mathrm{N}\)
