Answer:

Explanation:

Consider another special case in which the inclined plane is vertical (θ=π/2). In this case, for what value of m1 would the acceleration of the two blocks be equal to zero

F - Force

T = Tension

m = mass

a = acceleration

g = gravitational force

Let the  given Normal on block 2 = N

and N = m_2 g \cos \theta

and the tension in the given string is said to be T = m_2 g \sin \theta

When the acceleration a=\frac{F}{m_1}

for the said block 1.

It will definite be zero only when Force is zero , F=0.

Here by Force, F

I refer net force on block 1.

Now we know

F = m_1g-T.

It is known that if the said

\theta=\frac{\pi}{2} ,

then Tension T= m_2g [since \sin(\pi/2) = 1],

Now making "F = m_1g - m_2g"

So If we are to make Force equal to zero

F=0 => m_1g = m_2g \ or \ m_1 = m_2

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Matter can be broken down into two categories: pure substances and mixtures. Pure substances are further broken down into elements and compounds. Mixtures are physically combined structures that can be separated into their original components. A chemical substance is composed of one type of atom or molecule.
