In the given figure, what is the minimum possible tension $(N)$ in the string 2?
Correct Answer: 8
Explanation:
Ans. 8
$T_{1}\sin 37^{\circ} + T_{2}\cos \theta = 10$
$T_{1}\cos 37^{\circ} = T_{2}\sin \theta$
$\sin 37^{\circ}\left(\frac{T_{2}\sin\theta}{\cos 37^{\circ}}\right) + T_{2}\cos \theta = 10$
$T _ {2} = \frac {4 0}{3 \sin \theta + 4 \cos \theta}$
$T_{2\ min}$ occurs if $(3\sin\theta+4\cos\theta)$ is maximum
$T _ {2 \min} = \frac {4 0}{5} = 8$
$T_{1}\sin 37^{\circ} + T_{2}\cos \theta = 10$
$T_{1}\cos 37^{\circ} = T_{2}\sin \theta$
$\sin 37^{\circ}\left(\frac{T_{2}\sin\theta}{\cos 37^{\circ}}\right) + T_{2}\cos \theta = 10$
$T _ {2} = \frac {4 0}{3 \sin \theta + 4 \cos \theta}$
$T_{2\ min}$ occurs if $(3\sin\theta+4\cos\theta)$ is maximum
$T _ {2 \min} = \frac {4 0}{5} = 8$

Find the tension in the string supporting the ladder. $[g = 9.8 \, m/s^{2}]$
Correct Answer: $1440N$
Explanation:
Ans. 1440 N
For man B,
$T _ {B} - 6 0 \times 9. 8 - 5 4 0 = 0$
$T _ {B} = 5 4 0 + 5 8 8 = 1 1 2 8 N$
For man A,
$4 0 \mathrm{g} + 1 1 2 8 - T _ {A} = 4 0 \times 2$
$T _ {A} = 3 9 2 + 3 9 2 + 1 1 2 8 - 1 6 0$
$\boxed {T _ {A} = 1 4 4 0 N}$
For man C,
$T _ {C} - 5 0 g = 5 0 \times 1$
$T _ {C} = 5 0 g = (1 + g)$
$T _ {C} = 5 0 (1 + 9. 8)$
$T _ {C} = 1 0. 8 \times 5 0$
$T _ {C} = 4 5 0 N$
For man B,
$T _ {B} - 6 0 \times 9. 8 - 5 4 0 = 0$
$T _ {B} = 5 4 0 + 5 8 8 = 1 1 2 8 N$
For man A,
$4 0 \mathrm{g} + 1 1 2 8 - T _ {A} = 4 0 \times 2$
$T _ {A} = 3 9 2 + 3 9 2 + 1 1 2 8 - 1 6 0$
$\boxed {T _ {A} = 1 4 4 0 N}$
For man C,
$T _ {C} - 5 0 g = 5 0 \times 1$
$T _ {C} = 5 0 g = (1 + g)$
$T _ {C} = 5 0 (1 + 9. 8)$
$T _ {C} = 1 0. 8 \times 5 0$
$T _ {C} = 4 5 0 N$

A 40 kg monkey climbs a rope that passes over an ideal pulley. The other end of the rope is attached to a 60 kg weight placed on the ground. What is the maximum upward acceleration the monkey can have without lifting the weight? If he climbs the rope with upward acceleration 2g, with what acceleration the weight will rise up?
Correct Answer: $0.5g,g$
Explanation:
Ans. 0.5 g, g
T = 600 N (Block is on the verge of getting lifted)
T - 400 = 40a
600 - 400 = 40a $a = \frac{200}{40} = 5$ ; $\frac{g}{2} = 0.5g$ If boy move with 2g acceleration $T - 40\ g = 40 \times 2g \Rightarrow T = 120\ g$ For block 120 g - 60 g = 60 a $q = q$
a = g
T = 600 N (Block is on the verge of getting lifted)
T - 400 = 40a
600 - 400 = 40a $a = \frac{200}{40} = 5$ ; $\frac{g}{2} = 0.5g$ If boy move with 2g acceleration $T - 40\ g = 40 \times 2g \Rightarrow T = 120\ g$ For block 120 g - 60 g = 60 a $q = q$
a = g

Two trolley A and B are moving with accelerations a and 2a respectively in the same direction. To an observer in trolley A, the magnitude of pseudo force acting on a block of mass m on the trolley B is
Correct Answer: ma
Explanation:
Ans. ma
$a _ {D} = \frac {3 g}{2} \downarrow$
Pseudo force = $m_{object} \times a_{observer}$
$a _ {D} = \frac {3 g}{2} \downarrow$
Pseudo force = $m_{object} \times a_{observer}$

A block of mass m lies on wedge of mass M as shown in figure.
With what minimum acceleration must the wedge be moved towards right horizontally so that block m falls freely.
With what minimum acceleration must the wedge be moved towards right horizontally so that block m falls freely.
Correct Answer: $a = g\cot \theta$
Explanation:
Ans. $a = g \cot \theta$
$a_{2}$ : Acceleration w.r.t. wedge, $a_{1}$ : Acceleration of wedge
$a _ {\mathrm{x}} = a _ {2} \cos \theta - a _ {1} = 0$
$a _ {1} = a _ {2} \cos \theta$
Acceleration B along y-axis
$a _ {\mathrm{y}} = a _ {2} \sin \theta = g$
$a _ {2} = \frac {g}{\sin \theta}$
$a _ {1} = \frac {g}{\sin \theta} \cos \theta = g \cot \theta$
$a_{2}$ : Acceleration w.r.t. wedge, $a_{1}$ : Acceleration of wedge
$a _ {\mathrm{x}} = a _ {2} \cos \theta - a _ {1} = 0$
$a _ {1} = a _ {2} \cos \theta$
Acceleration B along y-axis
$a _ {\mathrm{y}} = a _ {2} \sin \theta = g$
$a _ {2} = \frac {g}{\sin \theta}$
$a _ {1} = \frac {g}{\sin \theta} \cos \theta = g \cot \theta$

All the surfaces shown in figure are assumed to be frictionless. The block of mass m slides on the prism which in turn slides backward on the horizontal surface. Find the acceleration of the smaller block with respect to the prism.
Correct Answer: $\frac{(M + m)g\sin\theta}{M + m\sin^2\theta}$
Explanation:
Ans. $\frac{(M+m)g\sin\theta}{M+m\sin^{2}\theta}$
Let the acceleration of the prism be $a_{0}$ in the backward direction. Consider the motion of the smaller block the frame of the prism.
The forces on the block arc (figure).
i) $N$ normal force
ii) mg downward (gravity)

iii) $ma_{0}$ forward (pseudo)
a)

$\mathrm{Mg}\downarrow \mathbf{(b)}$
The block slides down the plane. Components of the force parallel to the incline to the incline give $ma_{0} \cos \theta + mg \sin \theta = ma$
or $a = a_0\cos \theta +g\sin \theta$
Components of the force perpendicular to the incline give
$N + m a _ {0} \sin \theta = m g \cos \theta$
Now consider the motion of the prism from the lab frame. No pseudo force is needed as the frame used is inertial. The forces are (figure).
i) Mg downward, ii) N normal to the incline (by the block) iii) N upward (by the horizontal surface) Horizontal components given,
$N \sin \theta = m a _ {0} \text { or, } N = m a _ {0} / \sin \theta .\tag{... (ii}$
Putting in ii)
$\frac {M a _ {0}}{\sin \theta} + m a _ {0} \sin \theta = m g \cos \theta$
or $a_0 = \frac{mg\sin\theta\cos\theta}{M + m\sin^2\theta}$
$\text { From i), } a = \frac {m g \sin \theta \cos^ {2} \theta}{M + m \sin^ {2} \theta} + g \sin \theta = \frac {(M + m) g \sin \theta}{M + m \sin^ {2} \theta}$

The block A is moving downward with constant velocity $v_{0}$ . Find the velocity of the block B, when the string makes an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal
Correct Answer: $v_{0}/\cos\theta$
Explanation:
Ans. $v_{0} / \cos \theta$

Length of string remains constant
$v \cos \theta = v _ {0}$
$v = \frac {v _ {0}}{\cos \theta}$

Length of string remains constant
$v \cos \theta = v _ {0}$
$v = \frac {v _ {0}}{\cos \theta}$
