Consider the system as shown in the figure. The pulley and the string are light and all the surfaces are frictionless. The tension in the string is `(g=10m//s^(2))` .

A

0 N

B

1 N

C

2 N

D

5 N

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D


The acceleration of block of mass `m_1` is
`a=(m_1)/(m_1+m_2)g=5(m)/(s^2)`
From FBD of block `m_1`
`m_1g-T=m_1a`
`impliesT=m_1(g-a)=1xx5=5N`
