In the situation as shown in the figure ...

In the situation as shown in the figure if acceleration of `B` is a, then find the acceleration of `A` (`B` always remain horizintal),

A

`a sin theta`

B

`a cot theta`

C

`2a tan theta`

D

`2a costheta`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Components of acclerations of A and B along normal `(hatn)` to the incline of wedge should be the same

`implies A sintheta=acos(2theta-90^@)`
`implies A sintheta=asin2theta`
`implies A=2acostheta`
