TS EAMCET · Physics · Center of Mass Momentum and Collision

Two blocks of masses \(2 \mathrm{~kg}\) and \(1 \mathrm{~kg}\) are tied to the ends of a string which passes over a light frictionless pulley. The blocks are held at rest at the same horizontal level and then released suddenly. The distance traversed by their centre of mass in 2 seconds is (acceleration due to gravity \(=10 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}\) )

  1. A \(1.42 \mathrm{~m}\)
  2. B \(2.22 \mathrm{~m}\)
  3. C \(3.12 \mathrm{~m}\)
  4. D \(3.33 \mathrm{~m}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(2.22 \mathrm{~m}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The mass of two blocks are \(\mathrm{m}_1=2 \mathrm{~kg}\) and \(\mathrm{m}_2=1 \mathrm{~kg}\). The acceleration of masses is given as…
