Laws Of Motion Question 162

Question: Two masses $ m _{1} $ and $ m _{2} $ are attached to a string which passes over a frictionless smooth pulley. When $ m _{1}=10kg, $

$ m _{2}=6kg, $ the acceleration of masses is [Orissa JEE 2002]

Options:

A) 20 $ m/s^{2} $

B) $ 5m/s^{2} $

C) 2.5 $ m/s^{2} $

D) $ 10m/s^{2} $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

$ a=( \frac{m _{2}-m _{1}}{m _{1}+m _{2}} )g=( \frac{10-6}{10+6} )\times 10=2.5m/s^{2} $
