Question Number 18492 by virus last updated on 22/Jul/17

Commented by mrW1 last updated on 23/Jul/17

the force in k above block A is 3mg.  when the spring above A is cut, this  force is released, a force of 3mg is  acting on block A, therefore a_A =3g.    block B and C are still in equilibrium,  therefore a_B =a_C =0.

a_B =a_C =0  a_A =3g

$$\mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{B}} =\mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{C}} =\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{A}} =\mathrm{3g} \\ $$
