Question
In figure, two blocks M and m are tied together with an inextensible and light string. The mass M is placed on a rough horizontal surface with coefficient of friction 
and the mass m is hanging vertically against a smooth vertical wall. The pulley is frictionless. Choose the correct statement(s) related to the tension T in the string
- When m < M, T = mg
- When m < M, T = Mg
- When m > M, Mg < T < mg
- When m > M, mg < T < Mg
M, T = mg
M, T = Mg
M, Mg < T < mg
M, mg < T < Mg
The correct answer is: When m > M, Mg < T < mg
