Two bodies of mass $4 \, kg$ and $6 \, kg$ are tied to the ends of a massless string. The string passes over a pulley which is frictionless (see figure). The acceleration of the system in terms of acceleration due to gravity $(g)$ is

  • A
    $\frac{g}{10}$
  • B
    $g$
  • C
    $\frac{g}{2}$
  • D
    $\frac{g}{5}$

$A$ frictionless pulley is attached to one arm of a balance and a string passed around it carries two masses $m_1$ and $m_2$. The pulley is provided with a clamp due to which $m_1$ and $m_2$ do not move with respect to each other. On removing the clamp,$m_1$ and $m_2$ start moving. How much change in counter mass has to be made to restore balance?
