Both the blocks shown in the figure have mass $m$ and are moving with constant velocity in the directions indicated. They are in a resistive medium which exerts an equal constant force $F$ on both blocks in the direction opposite to their velocity. The tension in the string connecting them is: (Neglect friction)

$A$ light string passing over a smooth light fixed pulley connects two blocks of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$. If the acceleration of the system is $g / 8$,then the ratio of masses is
