Due to inextensible constant length strings: As the length of the string is constant, so velocity, components of its ends along the string are equal.
Due to normal reactions:The bodies in contact do not have any relative motion in the normal direction. Relative motion can occur only in perpendicular to normal direction.
There are lots of example like pulley hanging with the string, masses hanging the string with the support of pulley ladder example, spring example, inclined [plane example
Wedge Constraint : If two surfaces moves in such a manner so that they are always in contact with each other then the acceleration of one with respect to another parallel to the two surfaces which are in contact.
Deepesh
The relative (velocities, displacements, acceleration) perpendicular to the contact is (0) "zero"- That implies that the velocity of the body(1) moving in other body(2) should be equal to the velocity of body(2)

Three identical balls are placed on a frictionless
horizontal surface touching each other. They stick to
each other because of adhesive. Another ball of same
radius and mass m is placed over the void created by
the three balls. Find the forces applied by the balls
kept on the floor to each other if the system remains
in equilibrium.
