B) a glow stick , glow sticks are made up of certain chemicals and when they fuse together they start to glow which would be considered as light energy
Answer:
acceleration = 2.4525 m/s²
Explanation:
Data: Let m1 = 3.0 Kg, m2 = 5.0 Kg, g = 9.81 m/s²
Tension in the rope = T
Sol: m2 > m1
i) for downward motion of m2:
m2 a = m2 g - T
5 a = 5 × 9.81 m/s² - T
⇒ T = 49.05 m/s² - 5 a Eqn (a)
ii) for upward motion of m1
m a = T - m1 g
3 a = T - 3 × 9.8 m/s²
⇒ T = 3 a + 29.43 m/s² Eqn (b)
Equating Eqn (a) and(b)
49.05 m/s² - 5 a = T = 3 a + 29.43 m/s²
49.05 m/s² - 29.43 m/s² = 3 a + 5 a
19.62 m/s² = 8 a
⇒ a = 2.4525 m/s²
