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 blocks $M_1, M_2, M_3$ having masses $4 \ kg, 6 \ kg$ and $10 \ kg$ respectively are hanging from a smooth pulley using ropes $1, 2$ and $3$ as shown in the figure. The tension in the rope $1, T_1$,when they are moving upward with an acceleration of $2 \ m/s^2$ is ............... $N$ (if $g = 10 \ m/s^2$).

Find the acceleration of block $B$.

Objects $A$ and $B$,each of mass $m$,are connected by a light inextensible cord. They are constrained to move on a frictionless ring in a vertical plane as shown in the figure. The objects are released from rest at the positions shown. The tension in the cord just after release will be
