Block in water
If the whole system is in equilibrium and mass of tank along with water is 50 kg . The value of M1 and M2 are 15 kg and 5 kg,then find the reading in weighing machine.
Assumptions:
- Pulley and strings are massless and frictionless
2.Take .
3.Enter answer in kgs.
The answer is 60.

The system is in equilibrium, weighing machine for sure measures 50 of tank and water; of m_1, 5 kgs is lifted by the pulley, other 10kgs is holded by the water's buoyancy (I might be wrong, correct me), 50+10= 60
