A system consists of three masses \(m_1,\) \(m_2,\) and \(m_3\) connected by a string passing over a pulley \(\mathrm{P}.\) The mass \(m_1\) hangs freely, and \(m_2\) and \(m_3\) are on a rough horizontal table (the coefficient of friction \(=\mu.\)) The pulley is frictionless and of negligible mass. The downward acceleration of mass \(m_1\) is:
(Assume \(m_1=m_2=m_3=m\) and \(g\) is the acceleration due to gravity.)

1. \(\dfrac{g(1-g \mu)}{9}\) 2. \(\dfrac{2 g \mu}{3}\)
3. \( \dfrac{g(1-2 \mu)}{3}\) 4. \(\dfrac{g(1-2 \mu)}{2}\)
