Question

part a of the drawing shows, two blocks are connected by a rope f 412 N, and **116. As that passes over a set of p the other has a weight of 908 N. The rope and there is no friction. (a) What is the acceleration of the lighter block? (b) Suppose that the heavier block is removed, and a downward force of 908 N is provided by someone pulling on the rope, as part b of the draw ing shows. Find the acceleration of the remaining block. (c) Explain why the answers in (a) and (b) are different. ulleys. One block has a weight o and the pulleys are massless 412 N 412 N 908 N 908 N

Explanation / Answer

c) answers for part a and b are different because in both cases downward fprce 908 N is same but in first case, that force is used in accelerating heavier mass also. in this case force is distributed over lighter and heavier mass but in second case, there is not heavier mass, so force now is not distributed but whole force is apllied on lighter mass. thats why acceleration in different
