Important Questions on Laws of Motion
A mass is suspended by a rope from a rigid support at as shown in figure. Another rope is tied at the end , and it is pulled horizontally with a force . If the rope makes an angle with the vertical in equilibrium, then the tension in the string is


In the system shown in the figure, the acceleration of the mass and the tension in the string connecting between and is:

A body of mass is hanging from another body of mass . The combination is being pulled by a string with an acceleration of . The tension and will be respectively: (use )


A heavy block kept on a frictionless surface and being pulled by two ropes of equal mass as shown in figure. At , the force on the left rope is withdrawn but the force on the right end continues to act. Let and be the magnitudes of the forces by the right rope and the left rope on the block, respectively.

A block is dragged on smooth plane with the help of a rope which moves with velocity . The horizontal velocity of the block is

Two masses are connected by a string which passes over a pulley accelerating upward at a rate as shown. If and be the acceleration of bodies and , respectively, then:
