Two masses $m_1 = 5\, kg$ and $m_2 = 4.8\, kg$ tied to a string are hanging over a light frictionless pulley. The acceleration of the masses when they are free to move is $...........\, m/s^2$. $(g = 9.8\, m/s^2)$

Find the acceleration of block $B$.

In the arrangement shown,the pulleys are fixed and ideal,the strings are light,$m_1 > m_2$ and $S$ is a spring balance which is itself massless. The reading of $S$ (in units of mass) is

$A$ uniform chain of length $2L$ is hanging in an equilibrium position. If end $B$ is given a slightly downward displacement,the imbalance causes an acceleration. Here,the pulley is small and smooth,and the string is inextensible. Find the velocity $v$ of the chain when it slips out of the pulley (height of pulley from floor $> 2L$).

$A$ $4 \text{ kg}$ mass is suspended as shown in the figure. All pulleys are frictionless and the spring constant $K$ is $8 \times 10^3 \text{ Nm}^{-1}$. The extension in the spring is $\left(g=10 \text{ ms}^{-2}\right)$.

One end of a string of length $l$ is connected to a particle of mass $m$ and the other to a small peg on a smooth horizontal table. If the particle moves in a circle with speed $v$,the net force on the particle (directed towards the centre) is ($T$ is the tension in the string).
