Question:
Two bodies $A$ and $B$ of masses $10 \,kg$ and $15\, kg$ respectively kept on a smooth, horizontal surface are tied to the ends of a light string. If T represents the tension in the string when a horizontal force $F=500 \,N$ is applied to $A$ (as shown in figure $1$) and $T$ be the tension when it is applied to $B$ (figure $2$), then which of the following is true?

Concepts Used:
Tension
A force working along the length of a medium, especially if this force is carried by a flexible medium like cable or rope is called tension. The flexible cords which bear muscle forces to other parts of the body are called tendons.
Net force = 𝐹𝑛𝑒𝑡 = 𝑇−𝑊=0,

T and W are the magnitudes of the tension and weight and their signs indicate a direction, be up-front positive here.
