Two masses $M$ and $M/2$ are joined together by means of a light inextensible string passing over a frictionless pulley as shown in the figure. When the bigger mass is released,the smaller one will ascend with an acceleration of

  • A
    $g/3$
  • B
    $3g/2$
  • C
    $g/2$
  • D

The system of two masses $2 \ kg$ and $3 \ kg$ as shown in the figure is released from rest. The work done on the $3 \ kg$ block by the force of gravity during the first $2 \ s$ of its motion is $\left(g=10 \ m/s^2\right)$. (in $J$)

$A$ light unstretchable string passing over a smooth light pulley connects two blocks of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$. If the acceleration of the system is $\frac{g}{8}$,then the ratio of the masses $\frac{m_2}{m_1}$ is:
