$A$ man slides down a light rope whose breaking strength is $\eta$ times the weight of the man $(\eta < 1)$. What is the maximum acceleration of the man so that the rope does not break?

  • A
    $g(1-\eta)$
  • B
    $g(1+\eta)$
  • C
    $g\eta$
  • D
    $\frac{g}{\eta}$

Two particles of equal mass $m$ are connected to a rope $AB$ of negligible mass such that one is at end $A$ and the other divides the length of the rope in the ratio $1:2$ from $B$. The rope is rotated about end $B$ in a horizontal plane. The ratio of the tension in the smaller part (between $B$ and the middle particle) to the tension in the larger part (between the two particles) is (ignore the effect of gravity).
