Consider the three cases given in figures shown. Assume the friction to be absent everywhere and the pulleys to be light; the string connecting the blocks to other block or flxed vertical wall to be light and inextensible . Let TA, TB and TC be the tension in the strings in figure A, figure B and figure C respectively. Then pick the correct comparison between the given tensions (for$$ the instant $$shown) from options below.

Question

Consider the three cases given in figures shown. Assume the friction to be absent everywhere and the pulleys to be light; the string connecting the blocks to other block or flxed vertical wall to be light and inextensible . Let TA, TB and TC be the tension in the strings in figure A, figure B and figure C respectively. Then pick the correct comparison between the given tensions (for$$ the instant $$shown) from options below.

TA $$=2kgf$$.$$TB=Total$$ forcetotal mass×Horizontally moving $$mass=2(1+2)$$×$$1=23kgf$$.Similarly $$TC=1(2+1)$$×$$2=23kgf$$.Hence $$TB=TC$$
