Homework Statement
a block B of negligible mass is connected to a particle of mass 1 kg with a non-stretchable string. Now the hanging particle is given a velocity root(8gH) horizontally when system is at rest. Find the initial acceleration of block B.
Homework Equations
3. The Attempt at a Solution [/B]
Since Mass of Block is negligible, so Tension in String is Zero. Now for Block A, only force acting is mg in downward direction. So, acceleration of Block A is g in downward direction always. In the initial state, the acceleration of block A is equal to acceleration to Block B since they are directly connected by string. So, acceleration of Block B should be g towards right. But actual answer given is 2g.
