Question
In the arrangement shown in the figure the ends P and Q of an unstale string move downwards with uniform speed U. Pully A and B are fixed. Mass M moves upwards with a speed


Options
A.2U cos θ
B.U/cos θ
C.2U/cos θ
D.U/cos θ
Solution

In a right angle ᐃRQR
l2 = 2 + y2
Differentiating this equation with respect to time, we get
2l
= 0 + 2y
or
= 

Here, -
= vm
=
and -
= U Hence, vm =
∴ Correct option is (b).
