Multiple-Object Systems Without Friction: Two Weights Are Connected by a Massless

Multiple Choice

Multiple-object systems without friction: Two weights are connected by a massless wire and pulled upward with a constant speed of 1.50 m/s by a vertical pull P. The tension in the wire is T (see figure) . Which one of the following relationships between T and P must be true?

A) T > P
B) T = P
C) P + T = 125 N
D) P = T + 25 N
E) P = T + 100 N
