Homework Statement
M = M
There is another mass "m" attached to mass "M" with a rope
There is an acceleration (clockwise)
Does Tension2 smaller,bigger or equal to Tension1?
Homework Equations
F = ma
The Attempt at a Solution
So this is what I understand just by the logic:
In any case - T1 > T2 ,
I tried to put it into equations:
T2 = mg - ma
T1 = T2 +Mg - Ma
→→ T1 = mg - ma + Mg - Ma = m⋅(g-a) + M⋅(g-a)
"(g-a)" is constant value. Hence no matter what is the mass correlation between M & m , T2 will always be smaller than T1
Am I right?
Thanks a lot.
