It depends on the relation between m1 and m2.

The acceleration of the system depends on the mass M2.

Gcool said:   1 decade ago
Then acceleration of the system will increase may be just because of the decreasing the angle of friction.

Ajay said:   1 decade ago
As we know that a = g*(m2-m1 sin(alpha)/(m2+m1).

As alpha value will increase putting the value of alpha in in numerator the value of acceleration will decrease.

I think it depends on that which of the mass is heavier. If mass m1 is heavier then acc. will increase on increment of angle of inclination. If mass M2 is heavier than it will DECREASE. If both the masses are same then acc. will increase.

Komal said:   1 decade ago
If you see the body with mass m1 is of friction and m2 isn't. When we increase the angle of inclination the acceleration of system tends to decrease because of that frictional force.

If m1sinA < m2 then the block will move downward on incline plan in this on increasing the angle acceleration will also increase. Vise-versa for other.

@Swanand hey as angle of inclination is been increased t angle between the ropes is decreased hence more force is required n more acceleration.

Abhishek Kumar said:   1 decade ago
It should be given either the two masses are equal or which one is heavier otherwise it will become impossible to say what will be the effect of increasing or decreasing the angle of inclination.

Ravi kumar said:   1 decade ago
Acceleration of this system is decrease with increase in angle of inclination.
