Laws of Motion

A light string passing over a smooth light pulley connects two blocks of masses m1 and m2 (where m2 > m1). If the acceleration of the system is g 2, then the ratio of the masses m1m2 is:

1. 1 + 5 5 - 1
2. 3 + 1 2 - 1
3. 2 - 1 2 + 1
4. 1 + 5 2 - 1

3. 196 N
4. 294 N

Three blocks M1, M2, M3 having masses 4 kg, 6 kg and 10 kg respectively are hanging from a smooth pulley using rope 1, 2 and 3 as shown in figure. The tension in the rope 1, T1 when they are moving upward with acceleration of 2 ms-2 is N (if g = 10 m/s2). [figure]
