In the figure acceleration of A  is 1 m/s2 upwards, acceleration of B is 7 m/s2 upwards and acceleration of C is 2 m/s2 upwards. The acceleration of D will be

a
7 m/s2 downwards
b
2 m/s2 downwards
c
10 m/s2 downwards
d
8 m/s2 downwards

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Acceleration of pulley PaP = aA+aB2 = 1+72= 4 m/s2 (upward)Acceleration pulley Q will be 4 m/s2 (upward)aQ =aD-aC24 = aD-22    ⇒ aD = 10 m/s2(↓)
