Both the blocks shown in the figure have mass $m$ and are moving with constant velocity in the directions indicated. They are in a resistive medium which exerts an equal constant force $F$ on both blocks in the direction opposite to their velocity. The tension in the string connecting them is: (Neglect friction)

Two identical blocks each of mass $M$ are attached to the ends of a massless inextensible string which passes over a pulley with a fixed axis as shown below. $A$ small mass $m$ is now placed on block $B$ (the right block). The acceleration with which the two blocks move together is ($g =$ gravitational acceleration).
