The system shown in figure is initially in equilibrium. What is the acceleration of B just after the string connecting B to ground is cut ?

A

(a)g downwards

B

(b)`(g)/(3)` upwards

C

(c)zero

D

(d)g upwards

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Before the string is cut, tension in the spring = 2mg
Tension in spring doesn’t change instantly,
So, just after the string is cut, tension in spring is still 2mg
`a_(B) = (2m g - mg)/(m) = g` upwards

A block A of mass m is attached at one end of a light spring and the other end of the spring is connected to another block B of mass 2m through a light string as shown in the figure. A is held and B is in static equilibrium. Now A is released. The acceleration of A just after that instant is a . In the next case, B is held and A is in static equilibrium. Now when B is released, its acceleration immediately after the releas is b . The value of a//b is (pulley, string and the spring are massless).
