In order to test the strength of a rope,one end is tied to a large tree and the other end is hitched to a team of $2$ horses. The horses pull as hard as they can,but cannot break the rope. If the rope is untied from the tree and attached to another team of $2$ horses with equal strength,and the two teams pull in opposite directions,the tension in the rope will

An inextensible string passing over a smooth pulley connects two blocks of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ $(m_2 > m_1)$ vertically. If the acceleration of the system is $(\frac{g}{n})$, then the ratio of masses $(\frac{m_2}{m_1})$ is

Two weights $W_1$ and $W_2$ are tied to a massless string and passed over a pulley. If the pulley is accelerated upwards with an acceleration $g$,what will be the tension in the string?

$A$ smooth massless string passes over a smooth fixed pulley. Two masses $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ $(m_{1} > m_{2})$ are tied at the two ends of the string. The masses are allowed to move under gravity starting from rest. The total external force acting on the two masses is
