Answer:
Tā= 14.62 N , Tā Ā = 28.87 N
Explanation:
Given that
M = 2.9 kg
L=3 mm
x=0.74 mm
m = 1.45 kg
Lets take tension in the string 1 is Tā and tension in the string two is Tā
Tā Ā + Ā Tā = (M+m) g
Tā Ā + Ā Tā = 2.9 x 10 + 1.45 x 10
Tā Ā + Ā Tā =43.5 N
Ā Taking moment about Tā
Tā Ā x 2.26 =(M+m) g x 1.5
Tā Ā x 2.26 = 43.5 x 1.5
Tā Ā = 28.87 N
Tā = 43.5 - 28.87
Tā= 14.62 N
Therefore the tension will be Ā Tā= 14.62 N , Tā Ā = 28.87 N
