Calculate the tension in the string shown in
(a) The pulleys and the string are light and all surfaces are frictionless. `(g=10m//s^(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`T=5N and a=5m//s^(2)`

As pulleys are fixed `a_(1)=a_(2)=a " So, for "A,1xxg-T`
`=1xxa " and for "B,T=1xxa`
