Two blocks A and B of masses 3m and m respectively are connected by a massless and inextensible string. The whole system is suspended by a massless spring as shown in the figure. The magnitudes of acceleration of A and B immediately after the string is cut, are respectively
-
g,g/3
-
g/3, g
-
g,g
-
g/3, g/3
B.
g/3, g
Before the string is cut
kx = T + 3mg ...(1)
T = mg .. (2)
⇒
kx = 4mg
After the string is cut, T = 0
