MCQ
In figure, two blocks $M$ and $m$ are tied together with an inextensible and light string. The mass $M$ is placed on a rough horizontal surface with coefficient of friction $\mu$ and the mass $m$ is hanging vertically against a smooth vertical wall. The pulley is frictionless. Imagine a situation in which the given arrangement is placed inside an elevator that can move only in the vertical direction and compare the situation with the case when it is placed on the ground. When the elevator accelerates downward with $a_0( < g)$, then
- Athe limiting friction force between the block $M$ and the surface decreases
- Bthe tension in the string decreases
- Cthe system does not accelerate with respect to the elevator unless $m > \mu M$
- ✓All of the above
