Two masses A and B , each of mass M are fixed together by a massless spring, A force acts on the mass B as shown in figure. If the mass A starts moving away from mass B with acceleration a , then the acceleration of mass B will be :
Options
- AM F F + M a
- BF + M a M
- CM a - F M
- DF - M a M
Correct answer
D. F - M a M
Step-by-step solution
a cm = m 1 a 1 + m 2 a 2 m 1 + m 2 F 2 M = M a + M a B 2 M a B = F - M a M
