Physics Review: Applications of Newton's 2nd Law (a=?) (Part 1 of 3)

[@caitlinl7818]

Your videos are absolutely amazing. Thank you so much for everything that you've taught! Your videos helped me so much with my exams, you're a life saver! I also love your bow ties🙌🙌

[@MichelvanBiezen]

We appreciate your kind words and positive feedback. Glad we were part of your journey. 🙂

Application! Absolutely love this.

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Thank you. Glad you found our videos. 🙂

are we not considering the tension forces in case 1 and 2?

[@MichelvanBiezen]

You don't need to consider the tension to find the acceleration of the whole system (unless you use the method of free body diagrams)

what do i do if i don’t get it

[@MichelvanBiezen]

That often happens to many of us when we study physics. It happens to me as well. Sometimes I need to look at something over and over again, and it may take hours before I begin to comprehend something.. They key is not to give up and keep at it.

Thanks, there's no way to descriabe you perfectly❤

[@MichelvanBiezen]

So nice of you

[@Playerist]

Nice

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Glad you liked it. 🙂

Im 6 years old

[@MichelvanBiezen]

I am a lot older than that. Keep up your interest in science. 🙂

In case 4 how can find the tension

[@MichelvanBiezen]

You can do so by drawing a free body diagram around each of the two masses, or for the mass going up: T = m1g + m1a For the mass acelerating down: T = m2g - m2a
