Let μ μ be the coefficient of friction between blocks of mass m and M, the pulleys are frictionless and strings are massless. Acceleration of mass m is
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
acceleration of mass m is a = 
Various force equations are
2T – N = ma x
N = ma x
and mg - μ μ N – T = ma y
Solving a x = 
and a y = 
∴ ∴ a = 
=
