Question

Wedge of `10 kg` is free to move on horizontal surface. At the given instant, acceleration of wedge is (string and pulleys are ideal)

A. `2m//s^(2)` towards right
B. `2 m//s^(2)` towards left
C. `1 m//s^(2)` toeards left
D. `1 m//s^(2)` toward right

Answer 1

Correct Answer - D
Wedge of …………..
`FBD` of wedge

`T = F = 50 N`
`F cos 37^(@) - T cos53^(@) = 10.a`
`implies a =1 m//s^(2)`
