Figure shows two blocks, each of mass 2kg, connected by a string passing over two pulleys. One block rests on a smooth horizontal surface and the other blockhangs vertically. Assume pullyes to be frictionless and massless. What is the tension in the string? |

Answer» Solution :From the free-body DIAGRAM of vertically HANGING 2 kg block, `2G - T=2a`...... (i) considering the 2 kg block on the horizontal surface . `T=2a`............ (ii) combining (i) and (ii) ` 2g -T=T or 2T = 2g or T=g ` Newton =9.8 N
