In the given figure a block of mass 2 kg is placed on a block of mass 3 kg and the two constant forces are applied at the two ends of strings. If all the surfaces are smooth and strings and pulley are ideal then acceleration of 3 kg block is

a
10 m/s2
b
10/3 m/s2
c
20/3 m/s2
d
5 m/s2

detailed solution

Correct option is C

The resultant external horizontal force acting on the system consisting of 3 kg, 2 kg blocks and the pulleys is 20 N .∴3a = 20 ⇒ a = 20/3 m/s2
