$A$ man is pulling on a rope attached to a block on a smooth horizontal table. The tension in the rope will be the same at all points:

An arrangement of a spring,strings,a pulley,and masses is shown in the figure below. The pulley and the strings are massless and $M > m$. The spring is light with spring constant $k$. If the string connecting $m$ to the ground is detached,then immediately after detachment,

Two men of unequal masses hold on to the two sections of a light rope passing over a smooth light pulley. Which of the following are possible?

In the adjoining figure,the tension in the string connecting blocks $A$ and $B$ is:

$A$ hanging mass $M$ is connected to a four times larger mass $(4M)$ by using a string-pulley arrangement as shown in the figure. The larger mass is placed on a horizontal ice slab and is being pulled by a $2Mg$ force. In this situation,the tension in the string is $\frac{x}{5}Mg$. Find the value of $x$. Neglect the mass of the string and the friction between the block (larger mass) and the ice slab. (Given $g$ = acceleration due to gravity)

$A$ frictionless pulley is attached to one arm of a balance and a string passed around it carries two masses $m_1$ and $m_2$. The pulley is provided with a clamp due to which $m_1$ and $m_2$ do not move with respect to each other. On removing the clamp,$m_1$ and $m_2$ start moving. How much change in counter mass has to be made to restore balance?
