Detailed Solution

Explanation of the Problem:

The system involves two springs and several strings, with masses equal. The task is to match the conditions after different strings or springs break.

Step-by-Step Solution:

  1. Understanding the System:
    • The system is in equilibrium with taut strings.
    • When a string or spring breaks, the equilibrium will be disturbed, and the accelerations of the blocks will change.
  2. What happens when a string or spring breaks?
    • String W breaks:
      • If string W breaks, block B becomes unbalanced and its acceleration will be zero (aA = 0).
    • Spring X breaks:
      • If spring X breaks, the forces on block B change, resulting in its acceleration becoming zero (aB = 0).
    • String Y breaks:
      • When string Y breaks, block C loses support and its acceleration will be zero (aC = 0).
    • Spring Z breaks:
      • If spring Z breaks, blocks B and C will experience equal accelerations (aB = aC).

Final Matching:

  • (A) Just after string W breaks → (Q) aB = 0
  • (B) Just after spring X breaks → (R) aC = 0
  • (C) Just after string Y breaks → (P) aA = 0
  • (D) Just after spring Z breaks → (S) aB = aC
