Masses of $10\, kg$ and $20\, kg$ are connected by a massless spring as shown in the figure. $A$ force of $200\, N$ acts on the $20\, kg$ mass. At the instant shown,the $10\, kg$ mass has an acceleration of $12\, m/s^2$. What is the acceleration of the $20\, kg$ mass in $m/s^2$?

  • A
    $12$
  • B
    $4$
  • C
    $10$
  • D
    $0$
