Solution

The correct option is A 23mgaY
If the system moves with acceleration a and T is the tension in the string W2 then by comparing this condition from standard case T=m1m2m1+m2g
In the given problem m1=(m+m)=2m and m2=m
Tension = m.2m.gm+2m=23mg
Stress = Ta=23amg and Strain=StressYoung's modulus = 23mgaY
