$A$ lift is tied with thick iron ropes having mass $M$. The maximum acceleration of the lift is $a \ m/s^2$ and the maximum safe stress is $s \ N/m^2$. The minimum diameter of the rope is $(g = \text{acceleration due to gravity})$

  • A
    $\left[\frac{2 M(g+a)}{\pi s}\right]^{\frac{1}{2}}$
  • B
    $\left[\frac{2 M(g-a)}{\pi s}\right]^{\frac{1}{2}}$
  • C
    $\left[\frac{4 M(g+a)}{\pi s}\right]^{\frac{1}{2}}$
  • D
    $\left[\frac{4 M(g-a)}{\pi s}\right]^{\frac{1}{2}}$
