When a body of mass M1 is hanging freely and another of mass M2 lying on a smooth inclined plane ($$\alpha $$) are connected by a light index tensile string passing over a smooth pulley, the acceleration of the body of mass M1, will be given by

A. $$\frac{{{\text{g}}\left( {{{\text{M}}_1} + {{\text{M}}_2}\sin \alpha } \right)}}{{{{\text{M}}_1} + {{\text{M}}_2}}}{\text{m/sec}}$$

B. $$\frac{{{\text{g}}\left( {{{\text{M}}_1} - {{\text{M}}_2}\sin \alpha } \right)}}{{{{\text{M}}_1} + {{\text{M}}_2}}}{\text{m/se}}{{\text{c}}^2}$$

C. $$\frac{{{\text{g}}\left( {{{\text{M}}_2} + {{\text{M}}_1}\sin \alpha } \right)}}{{{{\text{M}}_1} + {{\text{M}}_2}}}{\text{m/se}}{{\text{c}}^2}$$

D. $$\frac{{{\text{g}}\left( {{{\text{M}}_2} \times {{\text{M}}_1}\sin \alpha } \right)}}{{{{\text{M}}_2} - {{\text{M}}_1}}}{\text{m/se}}{{\text{c}}^2}$$
