The correct Answer is:
To find the tensions in the strings when two blocks of masses \( m_1 = 0.2 \, \text{kg} \) and \( m_2 = 0.3 \, \text{kg} \) are accelerating upward at \( 2 \, \text{m/s}^2 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the forces acting on the blocks - For block \( m_1 \): - The tension \( T_1 \) acts upward. - The weight \( m_1 g \) acts downward. - For block \( m_2 \): - The tension \( T_2 \) acts upward. - The weight \( m_2 g \) acts downward. ### Step 2: Write the equations of motion - For block \( m_1 \): \[ T_1 - m_1 g = m_1 a \] - For block \( m_2 \): \[ T_2 - m_2 g = m_2 a \] ### Step 3: Substitute the values Given: - \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) - \( a = 2 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) - \( m_1 = 0.2 \, \text{kg} \) - \( m_2 = 0.3 \, \text{kg} \) Substituting these values into the equations: 1. For block \( m_1 \): \[ T_1 - (0.2)(10) = (0.2)(2) \] \[ T_1 - 2 = 0.4 \] \[ T_1 = 2 + 0.4 = 2.4 \, \text{N} \] 2. For block \( m_2 \): \[ T_2 - (0.3)(10) = (0.3)(2) \] \[ T_2 - 3 = 0.6 \] \[ T_2 = 3 + 0.6 = 3.6 \, \text{N} \] ### Step 4: Final results The tensions in the strings are: - \( T_1 = 2.4 \, \text{N} \) - \( T_2 = 3.6 \, \text{N} \) ### Summary - Tension in the string above block \( m_1 \) (T1): \( 2.4 \, \text{N} \) - Tension in the string above block \( m_2 \) (T2): \( 3.6 \, \text{N} \) ---
