Two bodies of mass $4 \, kg$ and $6 \, kg$ are tied to the ends of a massless string. The string passes over a pulley which is frictionless (see figure). The acceleration of the system in terms of acceleration due to gravity $(g)$ is

  • A
    $\frac{g}{10}$
  • B
    $g$
  • C
    $\frac{g}{2}$
  • D
    $\frac{g}{5}$

Two weights of mass $m_{1}$ and $m_{2} (> m_{1})$ are joined by an inextensible string of negligible mass passing over a fixed frictionless pulley. The magnitude of the acceleration of the loads is

Two blocks of masses $1\,kg$ and $5\,kg$ are attached to the ends of a massless string passing over a pulley of negligible weight. The pulley itself is attached to a spring balance as shown in the figure. The blocks start moving; during this interval,the reading of the spring balance will be:

Two particles of mass $m$ each are tied at the ends of a light string of length $2a$. The whole system is kept on a frictionless horizontal surface with the string held tight so that each mass is at a distance $a$ from the center $P$ (as shown in the figure). Now,the mid-point of the string is pulled vertically upwards with a small but constant force $F$. As a result,the particles move towards each other on the surface. The magnitude of acceleration,when the separation between them becomes $2x$ is
