A thin uniformed rod of mass m and length L is hinged at one end and from other end a light string is attached. The string is wound over a frictionless pullely (having mass 2m ) and a block of mass 2m is connected to string on other side of pulley as shown. the system is released from rest when the rod id making an angle of 37^(@) with horizontal. Based on above information answer the following question : Just after releases of the system from rest acceleration of block is

In Fig. 6-29, a 2.0 kg block is placed on top of a 3.0 kg block, which lies on a frictionless surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the two blocks is 0.30, they are connected via a pulley and a string. A hanging block of mass 10 kg is connected to the 3.0 kg block via another pulley and string. Both strings have negligible mass and both pulleys are frictionless and have negligible mass. When the assembly is released, what are (a) the acceleration magnitude of the blocks, (b) the tension in string 1, and (c) the tension in string 2?
