For the system shown in the figure,$m_1 > m_2 > m_3 > m_4$. Initially,the system is at rest in equilibrium. If the string joining $m_4$ and the ground is cut,then just after the string is cut:
Statement $I$: $m_1$,$m_2$,and $m_3$ remain stationary.
Statement $II$: The value of acceleration of all the $4$ blocks can be determined.
Statement $III$: Only $m_4$ remains stationary.
Statement $IV$: Only $m_4$ accelerates.
Statement $V$: All the four blocks remain stationary.
Now,choose the correct option.

  • A
    All the statements are correct
  • B
    Only $I$,$II$ and $IV$ are correct
  • C
    Only $II$ and $V$ are correct
  • D
    Only $II$ and $IV$ are correct.

$A$ mass $M$ is lowered by the help of a string at a constant acceleration of $\frac{g}{2}$ for a distance $x$. What is the work done by the string?

Two blocks of masses $m$ and $M$ are connected by means of a metal wire of cross-sectional area $A$ passing over a frictionless fixed pulley as shown in the figure. The system is then released. If $M = 2m$,then the stress produced in the wire is

$A$ light string fixed at one end to a clamp on the ground passes over a fixed pulley and hangs on the other side. It makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the ground. $A$ monkey of mass $5 \ kg$ climbs up the rope. The clamp can tolerate a vertical force of $40 \ N$ only. The maximum acceleration in the upward direction with which the monkey can climb safely is ............ $m/s^2$ (neglect friction and take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$).

If the mass of block $B$ is $3\,kg$ and the mass of block $A$ is $7\,kg$,then the acceleration of the system is ........... $m/s^2$. $(g = 10\,m/s^2)$

The system of two masses $2 \ kg$ and $3 \ kg$ as shown in the figure is released from rest. The work done on the $3 \ kg$ block by the force of gravity during the first $2 \ s$ of its motion is $\left(g=10 \ m/s^2\right)$. (in $J$)
