Two blocks are connected by a cord passing over a small frictionless pulley and resting on frictionless planes as shown in the figure. The acceleration of the blocks is :

Figure 5-20 shows a block S (the sliding block) with mass M = 3.3 kg. The block is free to move along a horizontal frictionless surface and connected, by a cord that wraps over a frictionless pulley, to a second block H (the hanging block), with mass m = 2.1 kg. The cord and pulley have negligible masses compared to the blocks (they are "massless"). The hanging block H falls as the sliding block S accelerates to the right. Find (a) the acceleration of block S, (b) the acceleration of block H, and ( c ) the tension in the cord. Figure 5.20 A block S of mass M is connected to a block H of mass m by a cord that wraps over a pulley.

Two blocks of masses m and 2m are connected by a light string passing over a frictionless pulley. As shown in the figure, the mass m is placed on a smooth inclined plane of inclination 30° and 2m hangs vertically. If the system is released, the blocks move with an acceleration equal to :

Two 100 g blocks hang at the ends of a light flexible cord passing over a small frictionless pulley. A 40 g block rests on the block an right and removed after 2 sec. (a) How far will each block move in the first second after the 40 g block is removed? (b) What was the tension in the cord before the 40 g block was removed? (c) What was the tension in the cord supporting the pulley after the 40 g block was removed?

A block of mass 5 kg resting on a horizontal surface is connected by a cord, passing over a light frictionless pulley to a hanging block of mass 5 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.5. Tension in the cord is ( g =9.8m//s^(2) )

Three blocks A,B and C of mass 10 kg each are hanging on a string passing over a fixed frictionless pulley as shown in figure. The tension in the string connecting blocks B and C is (g=10m//s^(2))
