In the arrangement shown in the figure,the pulley is smooth and massless,and all the strings are light. Let $F_1$ be the force exerted on the pulley in case $(i)$ and $F_2$ be the force in case $(ii)$. Then:

  • A
    $F_1 > F_2$
  • B
    $F_1 < F_2$
  • C
    $F_1 = F_2$
  • D
    $F_1 = 2F_2$

Two unequal masses are connected on two sides of a light string passing over a light and smooth pulley as shown in the figure. The system is released from rest. The larger mass $(2\, kg)$ is stopped $1\, s$ after the system is set into motion and then released. Find the time elapsed before the string becomes tight again. (Take $g = 10\, m/s^2$)

Two masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are connected by a light string passing over a smooth pulley. When set free,$m_1$ moves downwards by $3 \ m$ in $3 \ s$. The ratio of $\frac{m_1}{m_2}$ is $(g = 10 \ ms^{-2})$.
