Question: Acceleration of block A is:...
Acceleration of block A is:

A
3.74 m/s²towardsright
B
3.74 m/s²towardsleft
C
9.22 m/s²towardsright
D
9.22 m/s²towardsdeft
Answer
3.74 m/s² towards right
Explanation
Solution
The acceleration of block A is found through a careful analysis of the horizontal forces acting on it. This involves considering the reaction forces from block B and the net force from the pulley attached to A. The net horizontal force on A is proportional to (T + …), leading to a_A = 3.74 m/s² towards the right.
