MCQ
In the adjoining figure if acceleration of $M$ with respect to ground is $a$, then
  • A
    acceleration of $m$ with respect to $M$ is $2a$
  • acceleration of $m$ with respect to ground is $2a \ sin (\alpha/2)$ 
  • C
    acceleration of $m$ with respect to ground is $a$
  • D
    acceleration of $m$ with respect to ground is $a\, tan \alpha$

Answer

Correct option: B.
acceleration of $m$ with respect to ground is $2a \ sin (\alpha/2)$ 
b
$a_{0}=\sqrt{a^{2}+a^{2}+2 a^{2} \cos (\pi-\alpha)}$

$a_{0}=2 a \sin \left(\frac{\alpha}{2}\right)$
