(a) Let

a

be the acceleration of each block and

T_{1}

and

T_{2}

be the tensions, in the two strings as shown in the figure. Solution Image

Taking the three blocks and the two strings as the system. Solution Image

Using

Σ F_{x} = m a_{x}

14 = (4 + 2 + 1) a

a = \frac{14}{7} = 2 m / s^{2}

Alternate Method

a = \frac{Net pulling force}{Total mass} = \frac{14}{4 + 2 + 1} = 2 m / s^{2}

(b) Free body diagram (showing the forces in

x

-direction only) of

4 kg

block and

1 kg

block are shown in Fig. Solution Image

Using Σ F_{x} For 1 kg block, F - T_{1} or 14 - T_{1} ∴ T_{1} For 4 kg block, T_{2} ∴ T_{2} = m a_{x} = (1) (a) = (1) (2) = 2 = 14 - 2 = 12 N = (4) (a) = (4) (2) = 8 N
