STANDARD Physics Newton's Second Law MCQ Question
Two blocks of masses 10 kg and 20 kg are connected by a massless string and are placed on a smooth horizontal surface as shown in the figure. If a force F = 600 N is applied to 10 kg block, then the tension in the string is
100 N
200 N
300 N
400 N
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The acceleration of the system is calculated using F = ma, where m is the total mass. The tension in the string is then found by applying F = ma to the 20 kg block. The tension is 400 N.
