A uniform metal chain of mass $m$ and length ' $L$ ' passes over a massless and frictionless pulley. It is released from rest with a part of its length ' $l$ ' is hanging on one side and rest of its length ' $L -l$ ' is hanging on the other side of the pulley. At a certain point of time, when $l=\frac{L}{x}$, the acceleration of the chain is $\frac{g}{2}$. The value of $x$ is ........
In the arrangement shown in fig. the ends $P$ and $Q$ of an unstretchable string move downwards with uniform speed $U$. Pulleys $A$ and $B$ are fixed. Mass $M$ moves upwards with a speed.
At a given instant, $A$ is moving with velocity of $5\,m / s$ upwards. What is velocity of $B$ at the time
Figure shows a boy on a horizontal platform $A$ on a smooth horizontal surface, holding a rope attached to a box $B$ . Boy pulls the rope with a constant force of $50\ N$ . (boy does not slip over the platform). The combined mass of platform $A$ and boy is $250\ kg$ and that of box $B$ is $500\ kg$ . The velocity of $A$ relative to the box $B$ , $5\ s$ after the boy on $A$ begins to pull the rope, will be ............ $m/s$
Find the velocity of the hanging block if the velocities of the free ends of the rope are as indicated in the figure.
