Acceleration of right block is 2 m/s 2 and that of left one is 3 m/s 2 . Then, in the frame of the right block, the acceleration of the left block is 5 m/s 2 .
In the frame of the right block, if the left block moves by x then the thread looses by 3x and the point P moves by 3x. Thus, if the acceleration of the left block is 5 m/s 2 , then, the acceleration of the point P will be 3 times 5 that is 1 5 m/s 2 .
Now, jumping back into the ground frame it will give 1 3 m/s 2 .
