An elevator accelerates upwards at a constant rate. $A$ uniform string of length $L$ and mass $m$ supports a small block of mass $M$ that hangs from the ceiling of the elevator. The tension at distance $l$ from the ceiling is $T$. The acceleration of the elevator is

  • A
    $\frac{T}{M + m - \frac{ml}{L}} - g$
  • B
    $\frac{T}{2M + m - \frac{ml}{L}} - g$
  • C
    $\frac{T}{M + \frac{ml}{L}} - g$
  • D
    $\frac{T}{2M - m + \frac{ml}{L}} - g$

Two particles of equal mass $m$ are connected to a rope $AB$ of negligible mass such that one is at end $A$ and the other divides the length of the rope in the ratio $1:2$ from $B$. The rope is rotated about end $B$ in a horizontal plane. The ratio of the tension in the smaller part (between $B$ and the middle particle) to the tension in the larger part (between the two particles) is (ignore the effect of gravity).
