Solution

The correct option is A 7.8 N
For block 1
T(m1g+m1a)=0(1)
T=m1g+m1a

For block 2,
T+m2am2g=0---------- (2)
T=m2gm2a
From en (1) and (2),
m1g+m1a+m2am2g=0
From eqn (1) a(m1+m2)=g(m2m1)
a=g(m2m1m1+m2)
a=9.8(0.60.30.6+0.3)=3.260m/s2

(a) T= 2s, a= 3.260 m/s2, speed u=0
s=ut+12at2
=0+12(3.260)2×22=6.5m

(b) From (1), T=m1(g+a)=0.3(9.8+3.260)=3.9N
(C)F-2T=0
F=2T= 2×3.9=7.8N
