Answer:
6.53 m/s²
Explanation:
Let m₁ = 5 kg and m₂ = 10 kg. The figure is attached and free body diagrams of the objects are also attached.
Both objects (m₁ and m₂) have the same magnitude of acceleration(a). Let g be the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s². Hence:
T = m₁a (1)
m₂g - T = m₂a (2)
substituting T = m₁a in equation 2:
m₂g - m₁a = m₂a
m₂a + m₁a = m₂g
a(m₁ + m₂) = m₂g
a = m₂g / (m₁ + m₂)
a = (10 kg * 9.8 m/s²) / (10 kg + 5 kg) = 6.53 m/s²
Both objects have an acceleration of 6.53 m/s²
Hello!
Let's begin by doing a summation of torques, placing the pivot point at the attachment point of the rod to the wall.
We have two torques acting on the rod:
- Force of gravity at the center of mass (d = 0.700 m)
- VERTICAL component of the tension at a distance of 'L' (L = 2.200 m)
Both of these act in opposite directions. Let's use the equation for torque:
Doing the summation using their respective lever arms:
Our unknown is 'theta' - the angle the string forms with the rod. Let's use right triangle trig to solve:
Now, let's solve for 'T'.
Plugging in the values:
