$A$ pulley fixed to the ceiling carries a string with blocks of mass $m$ and $3m$ attached to its ends. The masses of the string and pulley are negligible. When the system is released,what is the acceleration of its center of mass?

$A$ bob of mass $m$ is hanging from a pulley inside a car by a string. The other end of the string is held by a person standing in the car. The car is moving with a constant horizontal acceleration '$a$' as shown in the figure. The other end of the string is pulled with a constant acceleration '$a$' vertically downward. The tension in the string is equal to-

Two weights $2 \,N$ and $3 \,N$ are suspended from the ends of an inextensible string passing over a fixed frictionless pulley. If the pulley is pulled up with an acceleration equal to the acceleration due to gravity $(g)$, then the tension in the string is: (in $\,N$)

An inextensible string passing over a smooth pulley connects two blocks of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ $(m_2 > m_1)$ vertically. If the acceleration of the system is $(\frac{g}{n})$, then the ratio of masses $(\frac{m_2}{m_1})$ is
