The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the velocity of the 3 kg body after one second, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the masses and the gravitational acceleration We have two masses: - \( m_1 = 3 \, \text{kg} \) (the heavier mass) - \( m_2 = 2 \, \text{kg} \) (the lighter mass) The acceleration due to gravity is given as: - \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) ### Step 2: Determine the net force acting on the system The net force acting on the system can be calculated using the difference in weights of the two masses. The force due to gravity on each mass is: - Weight of \( m_1 = m_1 \cdot g = 3 \, \text{kg} \cdot 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 = 30 \, \text{N} \) - Weight of \( m_2 = m_2 \cdot g = 2 \, \text{kg} \cdot 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 = 20 \, \text{N} \) The net force \( F \) acting on the system is: \[ F = m_1 \cdot g - m_2 \cdot g = 30 \, \text{N} - 20 \, \text{N} = 10 \, \text{N} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the total mass of the system The total mass \( M \) of the system is the sum of the two masses: \[ M = m_1 + m_2 = 3 \, \text{kg} + 2 \, \text{kg} = 5 \, \text{kg} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the acceleration of the system Using Newton's second law, the acceleration \( a \) of the system can be calculated as: \[ a = \frac{F}{M} = \frac{10 \, \text{N}}{5 \, \text{kg}} = 2 \, \text{m/s}^2 \] ### Step 5: Use the kinematic equation to find the velocity Since the bodies are released from rest, the initial velocity \( u = 0 \). We can use the kinematic equation: \[ v = u + at \] where: - \( v \) is the final velocity, - \( u \) is the initial velocity (0 in this case), - \( a \) is the acceleration (2 m/s²), - \( t \) is the time (1 second). Substituting the values: \[ v = 0 + (2 \, \text{m/s}^2)(1 \, \text{s}) = 2 \, \text{m/s} \] ### Final Answer The velocity of the 3 kg body after one second is \( 2 \, \text{m/s} \). ---
