      Question

      Two bodies of masses 3 kg and 5 kg are connected by a

      string and placed on a smooth horizontal surface. A force of 40 N is applied on the 5 kg block. What is the tension in the string?
      A 10 N Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 20 N Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 15 N Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 25 N Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Total mass = 8 kg, acceleration = 40/8 = 5 m/s2 Tension = mass of 3 kg block × acceleration = 3. 5 =15 N
