If acceleration of `A` is `2m//s^(2)` to left and acceleration of `B` is `1m//s^(2)` to left, then acceleration of `C` is-

A

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

B

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

C

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

D

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

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B


`l_(1)+l_(2)+l_(3)+l_(4)+l_(5)=` constant
`rArr l_(1)+l_(2)+l_(3)+l_(4)+l_(5)=0`
`rArra_(C)+a_(A)+(a_(A)-a_(B))+(-a_(B))+a_(C)=0`
`rAa 2a_(C)+2a_(A)-2a_(B)=0`
`rArr a_(C)=a_(B)-a_(A)=1-2=-1ms^(-2)` upwards
