m_{1}

and

m_{2}

, are connected by a cord and arranged as shown in the diagram with

m_{1}

sliding along on a frictionless surface and

m_{2}

hanging from a light frictionless pulley. What would be the mass of the falling mass,

m_{2}

, if both the sliding mass,

m_{l}

, and the tension,

T

, in the cord were known? (A)

\frac{m_{1} g-T}{g}

(B)

\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{Tg}

(C)

\frac{m_{1}(T-g)}{\left(g m_{1}-T\right)}

(D)

\frac{T m_{1}}{\left(g m_{1}-T\right)}
