Multiple Choice
Two masses,M1 and M2 hang over a frictionless pulley by means of a massless string.They are perfectly balanced when a flea of mass m is standing on M2.When the flea hops from one mass to the other,the system acquires an acceleration,a.What is the value of a in terms of the three masses?
A) a=g(m/(M1+M2) )
B) a=g(m/2M1)
C) a=g(m/M1)
D) a=g(m/M2)
