If the system of blocks shown in the figure is released from rest, the ratio of the tensions \(\mathrm{T}_1\) and \(\mathrm{T}_2\) is
(Neglect the mass of the string shown in the figure)

  1. A \(1: 1\)
  2. B \(1: 2\)
  3. C \(1: 3\)
  4. D \(3: 4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(1: 1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For block 2M: \( (2M)g - T_1 = (2M)a \) For block M: \( T_1 - T_2 = Ma \) If the system is released from rest and remains at rest (equilibrium), then \( a = 0 \). \( (2M)g - T_1 = 0 \Rightarrow T_1 = (2M)g \) \( T_1 - T_2 = 0 \Rightarrow T_1 = T_2 \) Therefore,…
