$A$ uniform metal chain of mass $m$ and length $L$ passes over a massless and frictionless pulley. It is released from rest with a part of its length $l$ hanging on one side and the rest of its length $L - l$ hanging on the other side of the pulley. At a certain point in time,when $l = \frac{L}{x}$,the acceleration of the chain is $\frac{g}{2}$. The value of $x$ is ........

Two masses $8\; kg$ and $12\; kg$ are connected at the two ends of a light inextensible string that goes over a frictionless pulley. Find the acceleration of the masses and the tension in the string when the masses are released.

$A$ light string passes over a frictionless pulley. To one of its ends a mass of $6\, kg$ is attached. To its other end a mass of $10\, kg$ is attached. The tension in the thread will be ........ $N$.

$A$ mass $M$ is lowered by the help of a string at a constant acceleration of $\frac{g}{2}$ for a distance $x$. What is the work done by the string?

Two unequal masses are connected on two sides of a light string passing over a light and smooth pulley as shown in the figure. The system is released from rest. The larger mass $(2\, kg)$ is stopped $1\, s$ after the system is set into motion and then released. Find the time elapsed before the string becomes tight again. (Take $g = 10\, m/s^2$)
