Mixed Laws of MotionHardQuestion 5448
Question
Three blocks (2 kg, 3 kg, 5 kg) are connected in series on frictionless surface. Force F = 30 N on the 5 kg block. Tension between 3 kg and 2 kg blocks is:
- A3 N
- B6 NCorrect
- C9 N
- D15 N
Correct answer
6 N
Explanation
a = F/(2+3+5) = 30/10 = 3 m/s². Tension on 2 kg block: T = 2×3 = 6 N.
