Q 1 :

As per given figure, a weightless pulley P is attached on a double inclined frictionless surfaces. The tension in the string (massless) will be (if g = 10 m/s2)    [2023]

  • (43-1)N

     

  • 4(3-1)N

     

  • (43+1)N

     

  • 4(3+1)N

     

(4)

4gsin60°-T=4a              ...(i)

T-gsin30°=a                    ...(ii)

Solving (i) and (ii), we get

203-T=4T-20

⇒T=4(3+1)N



Q 2 :

A hanging mass M is connected to a four times bigger mass by using a string-pulley arrangement, as shown in the figure. The bigger mass is placed on a fixed horizontal ice-slab and being pulled by 2 Mg force. In this situation. Tension in the string is x5 Mg for x = __________. Neglect mass of the string and friction of the block (bigger mass) with ice slab. (Given g = acceleration due to gravity)



(6)

For 4m

2Mg-T=4Ma    ...(i)

For M

T-mg=Ma    ...(ii)

Adding (i) & (ii), we get

Mg=5Ma⇒a=g5

So, T=Ma+Mg=Mg5+Mg=65Mg
