Important Questions on Laws of Motion
Two masses and are attached to the ends of a light string which passes over a massless pulley attached to the top of a double inclined smooth plane of angles of inclination and . If and , then the acceleration of block down the inclined will be:

The pulley arrangements shown in figure are identical, the mass of the rope being negligible. In case I, the mass is lifted by attaching a mass to the other end of the rope. In case II, the mass is lifted by pulling the other end of the rope with a constant downward force , where is acceleration due to gravity. The acceleration of mass in case I is:





A body is moving with a speed of and a constant force is needed to stop it after a distance . If the speed of the body is , the force needed to stop it in the same distance will be,

Two blocks, each having mass , rest on a frictionless surface as shown in the figure. If the pulleys are light and frictionless and on the incline is allowed to move down, then the tension in the string will be,
