(C) When a system falls freely under gravity,it experiences an acceleration equal to the acceleration due to gravity,$g$,directed downwards.In the frame of reference of the falling rod,the effective acceleration of the weights is zero because the pseudo-force acting on each mass $m$ is $F_p = -mg$,which exactly cancels the gravitational force $F_g = mg$.Since the net force on each spring is zero,there is no extension in any of the springs.Therefore,all weights will remain at their natural (unstretched) length from the rod,meaning they will all be at the same distance.

Three weights $W, 2W$,and $3W$ are connected to identical springs suspended from a rigid horizontal rod. The assembly of the rod and the weights falls freely under gravity. The positions of the weights from the rod are such that:
