As the force in the horizontal direction is 24cos(60) = 12 N
    Acceleration = net force / total mass = 12/12 = 1 m/s
 So tension at C = ma
                              5(1) = 5 N
Tension at B = (m+ m2)a
                     = (5 + 1) * 1 = 6 N
Tension at A = (5+1+1)*1 = 7 N 
 
 Hope you got your answer, match it with the diagram in question.....
