Options
`"M"_1/("M"_1 + "M"_2)`
`"M"_1/"M"_2`
`("M"_1 + "M"_2)/"M"_2`
`"M"_2/"M"_1`

Solution
Two masses M1 and M2 are accelerated uniformly on frictionless surface as shown in the figure. The ratio of the tensions `"T"_1/"T"_2` is `underline("M"_1/("M"_1 + "M"_2))`.
Explanation:
T2 = (M1 + M2)a
T1 = M1a
`therefore "T"_1/"T"_2 = "M"_1/("M"_1 + "M"_2)`
