F_x =Mg  F_y =(M+m)g  F=(√(M^2 +(M+m)^2 )) g  =(√(2M(M+m)+m^2 )) g
Fx=MgFy=(M+m)gF=M2+(M+m)2g=2M(M+m)+m2g

But answer is [(√((M + m)^2  + m^2 ))]g
Butansweris[(M+m)2+m2]g

If m=0 , which answer agrees ?
Ifm=0,whichansweragrees?

If M=0, the force should be mg.  If m=0, the force should be (√2)Mg.
IfM=0,theforceshouldbemg.Ifm=0,theforceshouldbe2Mg.
