Smooth surface

No friction

String is in-extensible

String does not change length,


so accelerations and velocities of
both particles, attached, are equal

Pulley is smooth
No friction, so tention is all
parts of the string are equal

String/pulley is light

Adds no weight to the system,


so acceleration is constant
throughout the motion

Air projectile q's


Assume acceleration due to
gravity is 9.8 (ignore air resistance)

Rod

Straight and doesn't bend, all


forces remain perpendicular
