Homework Statement
A truck shown in the figure is driven with an acceleration a =3m/s2. Find the acceleration of the
bodies A and B of masses 10 kg and 5 kg respectively, assuming pulleys are mass less and friction is absent everywhere.
The Attempt at a Solution
I have written three equations i.e.
for B: 5a1= T-5g
for A: I don't what to write whether 10a2= 2T-10g or 10a2= 10g-2T
and 2(a1 - a)= a2
I have solved the equations and i have got a1=a2=2m/s2
but the ans is a1=a2=1m/s2
