Fig. shows a system of three masses being pulled with a force F. the masses are connected to each other by strings. The horizontal surface is frictionless . The tension T_(1) in the first string is 16 N. The acceleration of the system is :

A disc of mass m lies flat on a smooth horizontal table. A light string runs halfway around it as shown in figure. One end of the string is attached to a particle of mass m and the other end is being pulled with a force F. There is no friction between the disc and the string. Find acceleration of the end of the string to which force is being applied.

Two particles of mass m each are tied at the ends of a light string of length 2a . The whole system is kept on a frictionless horizontal surface with the string held tight so that, each mass is at a distance 'a' from the center P (as shown in the figure). Now, the mid-point of the string is pulled vertically upwards with a small but constant force F. As a result, the particles move towards each other on the surface. The magnitude of acceleration, when the separation between them becomes 2x , is :
