Question

The system starts from rest and A attains a velocity of 5 m/s after it has moved 5 m towards right. Assuming the arrangement to be frictionless everywhere and pulley and strings to be light, the value of the constant force F applied on A is 

Moderate
Solution

a=v22s=2510=2.5m/s2

 For 6kg:F2T=6a   ……(1)

 For 2kg:T2g=2(2a)   ……(2)

From (1) and (2), F= 75 N
