    I'm doing some revision for this at the mo.
    I'm havin a bit of trouble with Q4.
    I can't work out accelerations of systems. Apparently theres sometin about accelerations being multiples of each other or sometin and these can be worked out by length of string considerations(whatever da fu(k that means). Can some1 please explain this to me. Cheers.

    Your questions a mite vague, but if I get you right, you are asking about the pulley relative acceleration problems?

    If so, a pulley being pulled by two tension forces will have half the accelleration of the particle creating the tension.

    Thats a ****e explanation, but it's the best I can give based on what you're asking.
