The pulley arrangements shown in figure ...

The pulley arrangements shown in figure are identical, the mass of the rope being negligible. In case I the mass m is lifted by attaching a mass `2m` to the other end of rope with a constant downward force `F =2mg`, where g is acceleration due to gravity The acceleration of mass m in case I is
.

A

Zero

B

More than that in case (b)

C

Less than that in case (b)

D

Equal to that in case (b)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

In case (b) entire tension =2mg, hence acceleration is more.
