The solution to the problem is that the tension in the string is and the mass of the second object is 1. Identify the given values Mass of the first object ( Acceleration of the system ( Acceleration due to gravity ( We need to find the tension ( ) and the mass of the second object ( 2. Analyze the forces on the first object
The second object is hanging and moving downward with the same acceleration . The forces acting on it are: Gravitational force acting downward: Tension acting upward: Applying Newton's second law for the downward motion: teen streap
m2=Tg−am sub 2 equals the fraction with numerator cap T and denominator g minus a end-fraction Substitute the values into the equation: The solution to the problem is that the
m2⋅g−m2⋅a=Tm sub 2 center dot g minus m sub 2 center dot a equals cap T The forces acting on it are: Gravitational force
T=0.3 kg⋅2.0 m/s2cap T equals 0.3 kg center dot 2.0 m/s squared T=0.6 Ncap T equals 0.6 N 3. Analyze the forces on the second object
