Ques. 1JEE Main 2026, 21 January (Evening Shift)

The pulley shown in figure is made using a thin rim and two rods of length equal to diameter of the rim. The rim and each rod have a mass of M. Two blocks of mass of M and m are attached to two ends of a light string passing over the pulley, which is hinged to rotate freely in vertical plane about its center. The magnitude of the acceleration experienced by the blocks is (assume no slipping of string on pulley). [figure]

  1. (M - m)g [ ( 83 )M + m ]
  2. (M - m)g2M + m
  3. (M - m)gM + m
  4. (M - m)g [ ( 136 )M + m ]

Answer

(1) (M - m)g [ ( 83 )M + m ]

Solution

Moment of inertia of the pulley (radius R):

I = MR2 + 2 M(2R)212 = MR2 + 23MR2 = 53MR2

Block M (moves down): Mg - T1 = Ma

Block m (moves up): T2 - mg = ma

Pulley: (T1 - T2)R = I = I aR T1 - T2 = 53Ma

Adding: (M - m)g = (M + m + 53M )a

a = (M - m)g [ ( 83 )M + m ]

Answer: (1)
