Two particles of equal mass $m$ are connected to a rope $AB$ of negligible mass such that one is at end $A$ and the other divides the length of the rope in the ratio $1:2$ from $B$. The rope is rotated about end $B$ in a horizontal plane. The ratio of the tension in the smaller part (between $B$ and the middle particle) to the tension in the larger part (between the two particles) is (ignore the effect of gravity).

Three blocks of masses $m_1, m_2$ and $m_3$ are connected by massless strings as shown on a frictionless table. They are pulled with a force $F = 40 \, N$. If $m_1 = 10 \, kg, m_2 = 6 \, kg$ and $m_3 = 4 \, kg$,the tension $T_2$ (between $m_1$ and $m_2$) will be ........ $N$.
