Expert Answer:
let mass of the block = m
then mass of rope = m/2
total mass of system = (m + m/2) = 3m/2
Total (net) force on the system = 6 N
therefore acceleration of the system =
since rope is uniform , it impliies mass of half of the rope =
now consider the system A :
bock + half part of the attached
In this system the only external force acting is due to the tension of the rope.
and the acceleration we found to be equal to 4/m
the net mass of this new system MA = m + m/4
= 5m/4
let tension force be T ( at middle of rope)
then
= 5m/4 * 4/m
= 5 N
