Question

In the figure, pulleys are smooth and strings are massless, $$m1$$ $$=$$ $$1$$ kg and  $$m2=13$$ kg To keep $$m3$$ at rest, mass $$m3$$ should be

Infinity Learn · Accepted Answer

$$m3$$ is at rest. Therefore,$$2T$$ $$=$$ $$m3$$ g                                                                                               …(i)Further$$, if $$m3$$ is at rest, then pulley P is also at rest.Writing equations of motion, $$m1g$$ $$-$$ T $$=$$ $$m1a$$                                        …$$(ii)                                         T $$-$$ $$m2g$$ $$=$$ $$m2a$$                                            …(iii)Solving$$ Eqs. $$(i), (ii) and (iii), we get                                                  $$m3$$ $$=$$ $$1$$ kg

In the figure, pulleys are smooth and strings are massless, m₁ = 1 kg and $m_{2} = \frac{1}{3} kg$ To keep m3 at rest, mass m₃ should be
