$A$ frictionless cart $A$ of mass $100 \ kg$ carries two other frictionless carts $B$ and $C$ having masses $8 \ kg$ and $4 \ kg$ respectively,connected by a string passing over a pulley as shown in the figure. What horizontal force $F$ must be applied on the cart $A$ so that the smaller carts do not move relative to it (in $N$)? (Take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

  • A
    $150$
  • B
    $340$
  • C
