... Here T denotes the tension in the rope, which is experienced as an upwards force by both masses. The constraint x2 = l − x1 gives ẍ2 = ẍ1 , and then subtracting the two equations allows us to eliminate T and obtain (m1 + m2 )ẍ1 = (m1 − m2 )g. Notice that we can now completely solve for x1 , hence ...
