Two blocks are connected by a spring. The combination is suspended, at rest, from a string attatched to the ceiling, as shown in the figure. The string breaks suddenly. Immediately after the string breaks, what is the initial downward acceleration of the upper block of mass $2\,m$ ?

A

$0$

B

$3\,g / 2$

C

$g$

D

$2\,g$

Solution

After cutting $T =0$

$\therefore \quad a=\frac{3\,mg }{2\,m }=\frac{3\,g }{2}$
