Masses of the two blocks
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Horizontal force is given 1 N and acceleration of first block is 3 times less than first like.
Horizontal force is given 1N
Let mass of the first block is
And acceleration of the first block is
According to Newton’s law horizontal force is given by,
Therefore,
Now, in second case acceleration of the block is
Let mass of the second block be
Therefore,
Conclusion:
Therefore,the mass of the first block is 3 times the mass of second block.
