A block of mass m is kept over a fixed smooth wedge. Block is attached to a sphere of same mass through fixed massles pullies `P_(1)` and `P_(2)`, sphere is dipped inside the water as shown. If specfic gravity of material of sphere is 2. Find the acceleration of sphere.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Writing equation fo motion for the block
`T=mg sin 30^(@)=ma`
for the sphere
Weight-Buoyant force `-T=ma`
or, `mg-(mg)/(2)-T=ma`
solving we get `a=0`.

A point mass m is released from rest at a distance of 3R from the centre of a thin-walled hollow sphere of radius R and mass M as shown. The hollow sphere is fixed in position and the only force on the point mass is the gravitational attraction of the hollow sphere. There is a very small hole in the hollow sphere through which the point mass falls as shown. The velocity of a point mass when it passes through point P at a distance R//2 from the centre of the sphere is

A sphere of mass m and radius r is placed on a rough plank of mass M . The system is placed on a smooth horizontal surface. A constant force F is applied on the plank such that the sphere rolls purely on the plank. Find the acceleration of the sphere.
