The system shown in the figure is in equilibrium and at rest. The spring and string are massless. Now,the string is cut. The acceleration of mass $2m$ and $m$ just after the string is cut will be:

  • A
    $\frac{g}{2}$ upwards,$g$ downwards
  • B
    $g$ upwards,$\frac{g}{2}$ downwards
  • C
    $g$ upwards,$2g$ downwards
  • D
    $2g$ upwards,$g$ downwards
