उत्तर
The free-body diagrams for both the blocks are shown below:
From the free-body diagram of block of mass m1,
m1a = T − F ...(i)
From the free-body diagram of block of mass m2,
m2a = m2g − T ...(ii)
Adding both the equations, we get:
\[a\left( m_1 + m_2 \right) = m_2 g - \frac{m_2 g}{2} \left......... [\text{ because F }= \frac{m_2 g}{2} \right]\]
\[ \Rightarrow a = \frac{m_2 g}{2\left( m_1 + m_2 \right)}\]
So, the acceleration of mass m1,
\[a = \frac{m_2 g}{2\left( m_1 + m_2 \right)}, \text{ towards the right }.\]
