The elevator is going up with an acceleration of `g//10` the pulley and the string are light and the pulley is smooth. If reading of spring balance shown is `0.8x` Calculate x. (Take `g=10m//s^(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
4

Applying pseudo force `T=(2m_(1)m_(2))/(m_(1)+m_(2))(g+a)`
Reading is `(2T)/g`
