Two bodies of mass m 1 and m 2 (m 2 > m 1 ) are connected by a light inextensible string which passes through a smooth fixed pulley as shown. Then choose the correct option(s)

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
(m 2 –m 1 ) gv
[m 2 (g + a) – m 1 (g – a)] at
Sol. P =
. 
Where
is the vel. of point of application
F ext + m 1 g = T & m 2 g =T
F ext = m 2 g – m 1 g
=(m 2 –m 1 ) g
P = (m 2 –m 1 ) g v Ans.
F ext + m 1 g – T = m 1 a
T–m 2 g = m 2 a
F ext = (m 1 + m 2 ) a + (m 2 –m 1 ) g
= m 2 (g+a) – m 1 (g – a)
P = (F ext ) (0 + at)
= {m 2 (g+a) – m 1 (g – a)} at Ans.
