4-1.Newton's Laws of Motion
hard
In the figure shown the block $B$ moves down with a velocity $10 m/s$. The velocity of $A$ in the position shown is ......... $m/s$

A
$12.5$
B
$25$
C
$6.25$
D
none of these
Solution
(B) The velocity of $A$ is $25 m / s$.
Velocity of string is twice the velocity of B
$v_{l}=2 \times 10=20 m / s$
To calculate, velocity of A as function of velocity of string, use following equation
$x^{2}+y^{2}=L^{2}$
$2 x d x / d t=2 L d l / d t$
$d x / d t=\sec 37^{\circ} d l / d t$
$v_{A}=5 / 4 \times 20=25 m / s$
