Q. A block of mass M is tied to one end of a massless rope.The other end of the rope is in the hands of a man of mass 2M as shown in the figure. the block and the man are resting on a rough wedge of mass M as shown in the figure. The whole system is resting on a smooth horizontal surface. The man pulls the rope. Pulley is massless and frictionless. What is the displacement of the wedge when the block meets the pulley? (man does not leave his position during the pull) (on the block 2M.)
