$A$ $2 \, kg$ block is lying on a smooth table and is connected to a body of mass $1 \, kg$ by a string passing over a pulley. The $1 \, kg$ mass is hanging vertically. Find the acceleration of the block and the tension in the string.

$A$ loop of light inextensible string passes over smooth small pulleys $A$ and $B$. Two masses $m$ and $M$ are attached to the points $O$ and $C$ respectively. The condition that $m$ and $M$ will cross each other (given $AB = 2l$ and $AC = BC = \eta l$) is:

Two masses of $5\, kg$ and $10\, kg$ are connected to a pulley as shown. What will be the acceleration of the system if the pulley is set free? ($g =$ acceleration due to gravity)

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

When the system is allowed to fall freely,the tension in the string between the $10 \, kg$ and $5 \, kg$ masses is .......... $N$.

Consider a situation in which both the horizontal and vertical surfaces of the block $M_0$ are smooth,as shown in the adjoining figure. $A$ force $F$ is applied to $M_0$. Mark the correct statement$(s)$.
