MCQ
A light string passing over a smooth light pulley connects two blocks of masses ${m_1}$ and ${m_2}$ (vertically). If the acceleration of the system is $\left( {\frac{g}{8}} \right)$ then the ratio of the masses is
- A$8:1$
- ✓$9:7$
- C$4:3$
- D$5:3$
$⇒$ $\frac{g}{8} = \left( {\frac{{{m_1} - {m_2}}}{{{m_1} + {m_2}}}} \right)\,g$
$⇒$ $\frac{{{m_1}}}{{{m_2}}} = \frac{9}{7}$

[Take surface tension of water ${T}=7.3 \times 10^{-2} \, {Nm}^{-1}$, angle of contact $=0, {g}=10\, {ms}^{-2}$ and density of water $\left.=1.0 \times 10^{3} \,{kg} \,{m}^{-3}\right]$ (in $mm$)
