$A$ monkey of mass $m$ is climbing a rope hanging from the roof with acceleration $a$. The coefficient of static friction between the body of the monkey and the rope is $\mu$. Find the direction and value of the friction force on the monkey.

  • A
    downward,$F=m(g+a)$
  • B
    Upward,$F=mg$
  • C
    Upward,$F=m(g+a)$
  • D
    downward,$F=mg$

$A$ horizontal force of $10 \,N$ is applied to a block $A$ as shown in the figure. The masses of blocks $A$ and $B$ are $2 \,kg$ and $3 \,kg$ respectively. The blocks slide over a frictionless surface. The force exerted by block $A$ on block $B$ is:

Two blocks of masses $m$ and $2m$ kept on a frictionless horizontal surface are connected by a massless string. Two horizontal forces $F_1 = (4.2t) \text{ N}$ and $F_2 = (7.5t) \text{ N}$,where '$t$' is time in seconds,are acting on the system as shown in the figure. The time at which the tension in the string between the two blocks becomes $10.6 \text{ N}$ is $t$ seconds.

Two masses of $5 \,kg$ and $3 \,kg$ are suspended with the help of massless inextensible strings as shown in the figure below. When the whole system is moving upwards with an acceleration of $2 \,m/s^2$, the value of $T_1$ is (use $g = 9.8 \,m/s^2$): (in $\,N$)
