Ok so I made an observation while answering some homework questions, and I want to make sure its not just a coincidence.
If I have something like this:
Since their acceleration is equal in this case, will tension of the string always be equal? Say the table is lifted at a different angle, where the blocks start moving in the opposite direction of the first example, since their acceleration is equal again in this case, will tension be equal as well? Can we generalize that to all examples, where if two objects are held together by a string and their acceleration are the same, then the tension is also the same?
