Don't Get this Wrong!


Two bobs, tied to each other by an ideal string, lie on a smooth, frictionless horizontal table.

A sudden impulse 'J' is imparted to the bob of mass 4m. Find (x+y), if the tension in the string just after the impulse is [x(J^2)]/[yml].

Use Judge-'Impulse'

  1. nice (and easy if done with some pseudo forces)..

  4. Disappointed..:(

    i'm getting 4+125= 129.....whats the right answer......nd how?

  5. COM is 4l/5 meters from the mass m, use angular impulse-angular momentum equations to get angular velocity about COM, then use T=m(w^2)r, where r=4l/5


    alternatively, you can do the same for the mass 4m also
    answer is, x=1, and y=20
