$A$ particle initially at rest is subjected to two forces. One is constant,the other is a retarding force proportional to the particle velocity. In the subsequent motion of the particle,

  • A
    the acceleration will increase from zero to a constant value
  • B
    the acceleration will decrease from its initial value to zero
  • C
    the velocity will increase from zero to a constant value.
  • D
    Both $(B)$ and $(C)$

$A$ system consists of three masses $m_1, m_2$ and $m_3$ connected by a string passing over a pulley $P$. The mass $m_1$ hangs freely and $m_2$ and $m_3$ are on a rough horizontal table (the coefficient of friction $= \mu$). The pulley is frictionless and of negligible mass. The downward acceleration of mass $m_1$ is (Assume $m_1 = m_2 = m_3 = m$)
