As shown in the diagram, particles A and B of masses 2 kg and 3 kg respectively are attached to the ends of a light inextensible string. The string passes over a small fixed smooth pulley which is attached to the top of two inclined planes. Particle A is on plane P, which is inclined at an angle of 10° to the horizontal. Particle B is on plane Q, which is inclined at an angle of 20° to the horizontal. The string is taut, and the two parts of the string are parallel to lines of greatest slope of their respective planes. [Figure 7.1]
