Solution
The correct option is Bg3 From constrained condition and using method of intercept we have, ..L1+..L2+..L3=0 āāa1+a2+a2=0āa1=2a2ā¦ā¦(1)
From FBD of masses m and 2m we have force equations as T=ma1...........(i) 2mgā2T=2ma2............(ii)
From eq (1), we get
Tm=2[gāTm] 3Tm=2gāT=2mg3 ā“a2=[gāTm]=[gā2g3] āa2=g3
Thus, the acceleration of 2m mass is g3
