The Atwood machine shown is suspended from a spring balance. The mass on one hanger is M, that on the other is (M + m). Suppose the heavier side (right side) hanger is fastened to the top pulley by a thread. The scale reads (2M + m)g The thread is burned and the system accelerates. While the masses on the Atwood machine accelerates the spring balance reads.
