Two bodies of mass 4 kg and 6 kg are tied to the ends of a massless string. The string passes over a pulley which is frictionless (see figure). The acceleration of the system in terms of acceleration due to gravity g is:
  1. g2
  2. g5
  3. g10
  4. g

Solution

a=m2m1gm1+m2

a=(64)g6+4=2g10

a=g5
