If acceleration of block B is 4 m//s^(2)...

If acceleration of block `B` is `4 m//s^(2)` upward & that of C is `6 m//s^(2)` downward. Find acceleration of `A` `:-`

A

`2 m//s^(2)` upward

B

`1 m//s^(2)` upward

C

`1 m//s^(2)` downward

D

`2 m//s^(2)` downward

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`vec(-a_(A))=(vec(a_(B))+vec(a_(C)))/(2)`
`rArrvec(a_(A))=1m//s^(2)` upwards
