MCQ
In the arrangement shown in figure, the ends P and Q of an inextensible string move downwards with uniform speed u. Pulleys A and B are fixed. The mass M moves upwards with a speed:
  • A
    $2\text{u}\cos\theta$
  • ✓
    $\frac{\text{u}}{\cos\theta}$
  • C
    $\frac{\text{2u}}{\cos\theta}$
  • D
    $\text{u}\cos\theta$
✓

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\frac{\text{u}}{\cos\theta}$



Along the string, the velocity of each object is the same.
$2\text{v}\cos(\theta)=2\text{u}$
$\text{v}=\frac{\text{u}}{\cos(\theta)}$
