Question

When the two blocks in the simulation have different masses the system is initially held at rest by applying a downward force (shown as a normal force) to the lighter block. This force is removed when the "Play" or "Step Forward" button is pressed. Given the limits on the sliders available to you in the simulation, what is the largest negative value the acceleration reading, shown at top right, can have?

Explanation / Answer

the largest negative value will be -9.8m/s^2

since it will have accleration due to gravity and it is deacclerating so we will take negative value

so the answer is -9.8m/s^2
