Connected Bodies & Pulleys

Two masses as shown in the figure are suspended from a massless pulley. The acceleration of the system when masses are left free is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

$a = \dfrac{(m_2 - m_1)g}{m_1 + m_2} = \dfrac{(10 - 5)g}{15}$
$a = \dfrac{g}{3}$ , so the answer is (b).
