Two weights ω₁ and ω₂ are suspended from the ends of a light string passing over a smooth fixed pulley. If the pulley is pulled up at an acceleration g, the tension in the string will be

Answer: (A)

Solution

Pulling the pulley up with acceleration g adds a pseudo downward acceleration g to the usual Atwood setup (seen from the pulley's frame), so the effective gravity acting on both
