Assuming coefficient of friction 0.25 between block and incline. Find the acceleration of each block in fig.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
m 2 a = T 1 – T 2 – m 2 g sin 37 - μ μ m 2 g cos 37
or a = 
- g sin 37 - 
g cos 37
or T 1 – T 2 – 0.8g = a …….. (ii)
T 2 – 0.5 g = 0.5a ……… (iii)
m 1 g – T 1 = m 1 a
or 2g – T 1 = 2a …. …. (i)
Adding (i), (ii) and (iii) 3.5 a = 0.7 g
or a = g/5.
