[4 points] In both cases shown, a pulley is suspended by a rope from a ceiling, and two masses are tied to each other by a rope that passes around the pulley. In Case A the two masses are at rest, but in Case B the masses are accelerating. The pulleys are identical in the two cases, and all ropes are massless. Will the tension at point P in the rope between the pulley and the ceiling be greater in Case A, greater in Case B, or the same in both cases? Frotain, Th.
