Question

As shown in the figure below, two masses m1 = 4.30 kg and m2 which has a mass 60.0% that of m1, are attached to a cord of negligible mass which passes over a frictionless pulley also of negligible mass. If m1 and m2 start from rest, after they have each traveled a distance h = 1.50 m, use energy content to determine the following.

Explanation / Answer

2)magnitude of the tension=T=2m1m2g/(m1+m2)=2(4.3)(2.58)9.8/(4.3+2.58)=31.605
