If the system is released, then the acceleration of the centre of mass of the system is :
.

A

`(g)/(4)`

B

`(g)/(2)`

C

g

D

2 g

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
(a) `a = (3m - m)/(3m + m) g = (g)/(2)`
`a_(cm) = (3a + 3m(-a))/(m + 3m)`
=`(-2 ma)/(4 m) = -(a)/(2) = -(g)/(4)`.
