Two bodies of mass 4 kg and tied to the ends of a massless string. the string passes over a pully which is frictionless (see figure). the acceleration of the system in terms of acceleration due to gravity (g) is:

A

g

B

g / 2

C

g / 5

D

g / 10

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`a = ((m_(1) - m_(2))g)/((m_(1) + m_(2))) " " where m_(1) gt m_(2)`
`a = ((6-4)g)/(6+4) rArr a = (g)/(5)`
