A massless, frictionless pulley has a rope with two weights suspended from it. The masses of the blocks are as follows: MA = 2m and MB = m. What is the tension in the rope when the blocks are released from rest?
a. 2 mg b. 3/2 mg c. 4/3 mg d. 1/2 mg
From an above diagram, we have
down positive : mb g - T = mb a
T = (mb g - mb a)
up positive : T - ma g = ma a
(mb g - mb a) - ma g = ma a
(mb g - ma g) = (mb a + ma a)
a = (mb - ma) g / (mb + ma)
using an equation, we have
T = (mb g - mb a)
T = mb g - mb [(mb - ma) g / (mb + ma)]
T = mb g [(mb + ma) g / (mb + ma)] - mb g [(mb - ma) g / (mb + ma)]
T = [mb (mb + ma) - mb (mb - ma) / (mb + ma)] g
T = [2 mb ma / (mb + ma)] g
where, mb = mass of block B = m
ma = mass of block A = 2m
then, w get
T = 2 [(m) (2m) / (m) + (2m)] g
T = (4 m2 / 3m) g
T = (4/3) mg

Mass M1 = 4 kilograms is suspended on a massless frictionless pulley and is connected with a massless rope to Mt = 2 kg, a mass on a frictionless table. Mt is attached to another suspended mass M2 = 6 kg with a massless rope over a massless frictionless pulley. (diagram attached) Find the velocity of each of the masses when M2 falls 20 cm. What is the acceleration of the system? DE
Two masses are connected by a massless rope. The mass of object 1 is 5.5 kg, and it rests on a surface with a 1.7 coefficient for static friction (us) and a .90 coefficient for kinetic friction (uk). Object 2 has a mass of 8.3 kg and hangs over the edge of the surface by a frictionless, massless pulley. The two objects begin at rest when object 2 is released to hang freely. A.) Draw a free body diagram for...
Two blocks are connected by a massless rope slung over a massless, frictionless pulley at the edge of a table. One block moves horizontally along the tabletop; it has a mass of 8.00 kg. The other block is freely-hanging off the edge of the pulley; it has a mass of 6.00 kg. Initially, both blocks have a speed of 0.900 m/s; the blocks come to rest after they have moved 2.00 m. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between...

Two blocks are connected by a massless rope that passes over a pulley. The pulley is 12 cm in diameter and has a mass of 2.0 kg. As the pulley turns, friction at the axle exerts a torque of magnitude 0.50 Nm.
