JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 6. system of particles and rotational motion
The pulley shown in figure is made using a thin rim and two rods of length equal to diameter of the rim. The rim and each rod have a mass of M . Two blocks of mass of M and m are attached to two ends of a light string passing over the pulley, which is hinged to rotate freely in vertical plane about its centre. The magnitudes of the acceleration experienced by the blocks is _________ (assume no slipping of string on pulley.)

- A \(\frac{(M-m) g}{\left[\left(\frac{13}{6}\right) M+m\right]}\)
- B \(\frac{( M - m ) g }{ M + m }\)
- C \(\frac{( M - m ) g }{\left[\left(\frac{8}{3}\right) M + m \right]}\)
- D \(\frac{( M - m ) g }{2 M + m }\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\frac{( M - m ) g }{\left[\left(\frac{8}{3}\right) M + m \right]}\)
