The linear mass density, i.e. mass per  unit length of the rope, varies from 0 to  λ from one end to another. The  acceleration of the combined system  will be

let mass of rope be m.  m=∫dm=∫_0 ^(  L) μdx =∫_0 ^(  L)  (((λx)/L))dx      = ((λx^2 )/(2L))∣_0 ^L  =((λL)/2)  acceleration =(F/(M+m))              a = ((2F)/(2M+λL)) .
$${let}\:{mass}\:{of}\:{rope}\:{be}\:{m}. \\ $$$${m}=\int{dm}=\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\:\:{L}} \mu{dx}\:=\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\:\:{L}} \:\left(\frac{\lambda{x}}{{L}}\right){dx} \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:=\:\frac{\lambda{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{2}{L}}\mid_{\mathrm{0}} ^{{L}} \:=\frac{\lambda{L}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${acceleration}\:=\frac{{F}}{{M}+{m}} \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:{a}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{2}{F}}{\mathrm{2}{M}+\lambda{L}}\:. \\ $$
