Given Mass of Block A = m.                Mass of Block B = 3m.  Find the acc^n  of blocks at the instant  when string between block A & ground  is cut ?

$$\mathrm{Given}\:\mathrm{Mass}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{Block}\:\mathrm{A}\:=\:\mathrm{m}. \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\mathrm{Mass}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{Block}\:\mathrm{B}\:=\:\mathrm{3m}. \\ $$$$\mathrm{Find}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{acc}^{\mathrm{n}} \:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{blocks}\:\mathrm{at}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{instant} \\ $$$$\mathrm{when}\:\mathrm{string}\:\mathrm{between}\:\mathrm{block}\:\mathrm{A}\:\&\:\mathrm{ground} \\ $$$$\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{cut}\:? \\ $$

Before the cut:  T_1 =3mg  2T_1 =mg+T_2   ⇒T_2 =5mg    After the cut:  T_2 =0  3mg−T_1 =3mg×a_B   3mg−3mg=3mg×a_B   ⇒a_B =0  2T_1 −mg=ma_A   6mg−mg=ma_A   ⇒a_A =5g (↑)

$${Before}\:{the}\:{cut}: \\ $$$${T}_{\mathrm{1}} =\mathrm{3}{mg} \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}{T}_{\mathrm{1}} ={mg}+{T}_{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{T}_{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{5}{mg} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$${After}\:{the}\:{cut}: \\ $$$${T}_{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{3}{mg}−{T}_{\mathrm{1}} =\mathrm{3}{mg}×{a}_{{B}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{3}{mg}−\mathrm{3}{mg}=\mathrm{3}{mg}×{a}_{{B}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{a}_{{B}} =\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}{T}_{\mathrm{1}} −{mg}={ma}_{{A}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{6}{mg}−{mg}={ma}_{{A}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{a}_{{A}} =\mathrm{5}{g}\:\left(\uparrow\right) \\ $$
