As shown in the figure,two equal masses each of $2\, kg$ are suspended from a spring balance. The reading of the spring balance will be ......... $kg$.

$A$ 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-

In the pulley system shown,the mass of the ball is $1.2$ times greater than the mass of the rod. The length of the rod is $50 \,cm$. The ball is set on the same level as the lower end of the rod and then released. What is the acceleration of the rod with which it comes down (in $\,m/s^2$)? Assume the pulleys and threads are massless and friction is neglected. (Use $g = 10 \,m/s^2$)

Three equal weights $A, B$ and $C$ of mass $2\, kg$ each are hanging on a string passing over a fixed frictionless pulley as shown in the figure. The tension in the string connecting weights $B$ and $C$ is ........... $N$.

Two bodies of mass $4\,kg$ and $6\,kg$ are attached to the ends of a string passing over a pulley. The $4\,kg$ mass is also attached to the ground by another string. The tension $T_1$ in this lower string is equal to ......... $N$ (Take $g = 9.8\,m/s^2$)

$A$ hanging mass $M$ is connected to a four times larger mass $(4M)$ by using a string-pulley arrangement as shown in the figure. The larger mass is placed on a horizontal ice slab and is being pulled by a $2Mg$ force. In this situation,the tension in the string is $\frac{x}{5}Mg$. Find the value of $x$. Neglect the mass of the string and the friction between the block (larger mass) and the ice slab. (Given $g$ = acceleration due to gravity)
