Q4 of 82 Page 79

A block of mass 0.2 kg is suspended from the ceiling by a light string. A second block of mass 0.3 kg is suspended from the first block through another string. Find the tensions in the two strings. Take g = 10 m/s2.


The first string is being stretched due to the weight of both the blocks


Thus, the tension in the first string



The second string is being stretched due to the weight of the second block


Thus, the tension in the first string

In a TV picture tube electrons are ejected from the cathode with negligible speed and reach a velocity of 5 × 106 m/s in travelling one centimeter. Assuming straight line motion, find the constant force exerted on the electron. The mass of the electron is 9.1 × 10-31 kg.
