Consider a system of masses `M_(1)` and `M_(2)(M_(1) gt M_(2))` connected by a massless string in fig the system is pulled by a force F from the side of mass `M_(1)` and in fig
(b) the system is pulled by the same force F from the side of mass `M_(2)` then:

Options

A. acceleration in the two cases is same and tension in the string connecting `M_(1) and M_(2)` is also same
B. acceleration of system in (a) is more than in (b) while tension in the string is same in both cases
C. acceleration of system in both cases is same but tension in the string in (a) is more than in (b)
D. acceleration of system in both cases is same but tension in the string in (a) is less than in (b)

Answer

D
