Consider the situation shown in the following figure All the surfaces are frictionless and the string and the pulley are light. Find the magnitude of acceleration of the two blocks.
उत्तर
Mass of each block is 1 kg, \[\sin \theta_1 = \frac{4}{5}\]
\[\sin \theta_2 = \frac{3}{5}\]
The free-body diagrams for both the boxes are shown below:
mgsinθ1 − T = ma ...(i)
T − mgsinθ2 = ma ...(ii)
Adding equations (i) and (ii),we get:
mg(sinθ1 − sinθ2) = 2ma
⇒ 2a = g (sinθ1 − sinθ2)
\[\Rightarrow a = \frac{g}{5} \times \frac{1}{2}\]
\[ = \frac{g}{10}\]
