Two masses `m_(1)` and ` m_(2)`. Which are connected with a light string, are placed over a frictionless pulley. This set up is placed over a weighting machine, as shown. Three combination of masses `m_(1)` and `m_(2)` are used, in first case `m_(1)=6 kg` and `m_(2)=2kg` in second case `m_(1)=5kg` and `m_(2)=3kg` and in third case `m_(1)=4kg` and `m_(2)=4kg`.Masses are held stationary initiallly and then released. If the readings of the weighing machine after the release in three cases are `W_(1)`,`W_(2)` and `W_(3)` respectively then`:-`

A

`W_(1)gtW_(2)gtW_(3)`

B

`W_(1)ltW_(2)ltW_(3)`

C

`W_(1)=W_(2)=W_(3)`

D

`W_(1)=W_(2)ltW_(3)`
