    Momentum has both magnitude and direction and it is a vector quantity. The direction of the momentum is the same as the direction of the velocity. It quantifies the "quantity of motion" of an object and reflects how fast it is moving and how much mass the object has, the standard SI unit for momentum is kilogram-meters per second (kg m/s). A heavier object moving a the same velocity as the lighter object will have greater momentum. Also, an object moving at a higher velocity will have higher momentum than the same object moving at a lower velocity.

For 2 kg block

T – 2g sin37 = 2a        . (i)

For 4 kg block

4g – 2T =  4 a 2

2g – T = a                    . (ii)

T = (2g – a)

2g – a – 2g ×  3 5  = 2a

3a = 2g ×  2 5

fK = μmg cosq

= 0.1 × 5 0 × 3 2

= 2 . 5 3 N

 F1    = mg sinq + fK

= 25 + 2.5 3  

F2    = mg sinq – fK

= 25 – 2.5 

F1 – F2 = 5 3  N
