A hanging mass M is connected to a four times bigger mass by using a string-pulley arrangement. as shown in the figure. The bigger mass is placed on a horizontal ice-slab and being pulled by 2 Mg force. In this situation. tension in the string is (x/5) Mg for x = . Neglect mass of the string and friction of the block (bigger mass) with ice slab. (Given g= acceleration due to gravity)

T=Mg+5g​

$T = M g + \frac{g}{5}$
