In the figure shown, m₁=10 ~kg , m₂=6 ~kg , m₃=4 ~kg . If T₃=40 ~N , T₂=?

Step-by-step solution

Let a be the acceleration of each block. Then, array ll & T₃= (m₁+m₂+m₃ ) a...(i) and & T₂= (m₁+m₂ ) a...(ii) array From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get aligned T₂ & = ( m₁+m₂ m₁+m₂+m₃ ) T₃ & = ( 10+6 10+6+4 ) 40=32 ~N aligned
