Question
Q7.The figure below shows two boxes connected to each other by a light cord that passes over a pulley with negligible friction. The box of mass
m1 = 3.80 kg
lies on a horizontal table with negligible friction, while the box of mass
m2 = 10.3 kg
hangs vertically.Two boxes labeled m1 and m2 are attached together by a cord.
- Box m1 lies on a horizontal table with the cord extending horizontally from its right side.
- The cord extends horizontally from the right side of m1 then goes over a pulley and then straight down to m2.
- Box m2 hangs from the cord.
(a)
What is the magnitude of the acceleration of each box (in m/s2)? (Here,
a1
is the acceleration of
m1,
and
a2
is the acceleration of
m2.)
a1
= m/s2
a2
= m/s2(b)
What is the tension in the cord (in N)?
N
