JEE Main 30 January 2024, Shift 2, Physics Q33

Question 33 of 90 in this shift, Physics question 3 of 30, Section A.

Three blocks AA, BB and CC are pulled on a horizontal smooth surface by a force of 80N80N as shown in figure The tensions T1T_1 and T2T_2 in the string are respectively:

The figure, in words

Three blocks in a row on a horizontal smooth surface: A (5 kg), string T1, B (3 kg), string T2, C (2 kg); force F = 80 N pulls C to the right.
