When we ignore friction and mass of pulley what would be the accelerations of the two blocks `m_(1)` and `m_(2)`
.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a_(1) =(2m_(2) g)/(4 m_(1) + m_(2)) ;a_(2) = (m_(2) g)/(4 m_(1) + m_(2))` .

It is clear that when block `m_(1)`
moves to the rigth through a distance `x` block `m_(2)` moves down through distance `x//2` Therefore
`a_(2) = a_(1)//2`
Applying Newton s 2nd law, `T_(1) = m_(1) a_(1)`
`:. T_(2) = 2 T_(1)` Equation of motion of `m_(2)` is
`m_(2) g - T_(2) = m_(2) a_(2) or m_(2) g - T_(1) = m_(2) (a_(1)/(2))`
or `m_(2) g - 2 m_(1) a_(1) = m_(2) a_(1)/(2)` or `a_(1) = (2 m_(2)g)/(4m _(1) + m_(2))`
And `a_(2) = a_(1)/(2) = (m_(2) g)/(4 m_(1) + m_(2))` .

In the arrangement shown in fig the bodies have masses m_(0), m_(1) and m_(2) the friction is absent the masses of pulleys and the threads are negligible find the acceleration of the body m_(1)

Two block of masses m_(1) and m_(2) are in equilibrium. The block m_(2) hangs from a fixed smooth pulley by an inextensible string that is fitted with a light spring of stiffness k as shown in fig. Neglecting friction and mass of the string, find the acceleration of the bodies just after the string S is cut.

A block of mass m_(1)=2 kg is kept on a smooth horizontal table. Another block of mass m_(2)=1 kg is connected to m_(1) by a light inextensible string passing over a smooth pulley as shown in the figure. If the blocks are released, what will be the (a) acceleration of each block (b) tension in the string?

In Fig. 10-64, block 1 has mass m_(1)=460g , block 2 has mass m_(2)=500g , and the pulley, which is mounted on a horizontal axle with negligible friction, has radius R = 5.00 cm. When released from rest, block 2 falls 75.0 cm in 5.00 s without the cord slipping on the pulley. (a) What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the blocks? What are (b) tension T_(2) and ( c) tension T_(1) ? (d) What is the magnitude of the pulley's angular acceleration? (e) What is its rotational inertia?
