We have an Atwood device, two blocks connect by a string strung over a pulley, but the twist this time is that both blocks are o

n perfectly smooth inclines. The upper block is on an incline 15 degrees to the horizontal and has a mass of 7kg. The lower block is on an incline of 65 degrees to the horizontal and has a mass of 11kg. Find the acceleration of the system?

The Acceleration of the system is 6.41 m/s².

Given,

α= 15°, m₁ = 7kg

β= 65°, m₂ = 11 kg

Let, a be the acceleration and T is the tensions at the end it's the cord.

Let, the mass m₂ be coming down along the inclined plane along the inclined surface towards downward m₂g sin β and the tension in the upward direction,

Resultant force, m₂a=m₂g sin β -T

11a=((11) ×g sin 65°) -T  ...(i)

Now, considering the motion of m₁ which moves downwards, the forces are m₁g sinα, and T both are acting downwards.

Resultant force m₁a = m₁g sin α+T

7a =7g sin 15°+T  ...(ii)

Solving both the equations by adding them,

18a=11gsin 65°+7g sin 15°-T+T

18a=11gsin 65°+7g sin 15°=115.45

a=115.45/18=6.41 m/s²

Hence, the Acceleration of the system is 6.41 m/s².

In which part of the ear is the sound wave converted into electrical impulse
Kryger [21]
The part of the ear where the sound wave converted into electrical impulse would be the cochlea. This part is the  auditory portion of the inner ear which produces nerve impulses in response to sound vibrations. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

What the planet after Venus
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Mercury and Venus are therefore closer to each other most of the time. But Earth is the planet closest to Venus. And that's why from here on Earth, Venus looks so big and luminous. Venus is the brightest thing in the night sky after the sun and the moon.
