Three blocks with masses `m` , `2m` and `3m` are connected by strings, as shown in the figure. After an upward force `F` is applied on block `m` , the masses move upward at costant speed `v` . What is the net force on the block of mass `2m` ? (`g` is the acceleration due to gravity). ltBrgt

A

zero

B

2 mg

C

3 mg

D

6 mg

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
(a) Since, all the blocks are moving with constant velocity, then the force on the all blocks will be zero.
