Two blocks of mass $M$ and $m$ are kept on a trolley of mass $M_0$ as shown in the figure. All surfaces are smooth. Select the correct statement.

Two identical blocks each of mass $M$ are attached to the ends of a massless inextensible string which passes over a pulley with a fixed axis as shown below. $A$ small mass $m$ is now placed on block $B$ (the right block). The acceleration with which the two blocks move together is ($g =$ gravitational acceleration).

Objects $A$ and $B$,each of mass $m$,are connected by a light inextensible cord. They are constrained to move on a frictionless ring in a vertical plane as shown in the figure. The objects are released from rest at the positions shown. The tension in the cord just after release will be

Two weights $2 \,N$ and $3 \,N$ are suspended from the ends of an inextensible string passing over a fixed frictionless pulley. If the pulley is pulled up with an acceleration equal to the acceleration due to gravity $(g)$, then the tension in the string is: (in $\,N$)

$A$ mass of $1 \ kg$ is suspended by a string $A$. Another string $C$ is connected to its lower end (see figure). If the string $C$ is stretched slowly,then
