Two blocks are connected by a string as shown in the diagram. The upper block is hung by another string. A force $F$ applied on the upper string produces an acceleration of $2\,m/{s^2}$ in the upward direction in both the blocks. If $T$ and $T'$ be the tensions in the two parts of the string, then $T$ and $T'$
