Two equal masses $A$ and $B$ are arranged as shown in the figure. The pulley and string are ideal and there is no friction. Block $A$ has a speed $u$ in the downward direction. The speed of the block $B$ is:

In each of the three arrangements,the block of mass $m_1$ is being pulled left with constant velocity $v$. There is no friction anywhere. The strings are light and inextensible and pulleys are massless. The ratio of the speed of the block of mass $m_2$ in the three cases respectively is
