One end of a massless rope,which passes over a massless and frictionless pulley $P$,is tied to a hook while the other is free. The maximum tension the rope can bear is $360 \ N$. With what value of maximum safe acceleration (in $m \ s^{-2}$) can a man of $60 \ kg$ climb on the rope?

  • A
    $16$
  • B
    $6$
  • C
    $4$
  • D
    $8$

Both the blocks shown in the figure have mass $m$ and are moving with constant velocity in the directions indicated. They are in a resistive medium which exerts an equal constant force $F$ on both blocks in the direction opposite to their velocity. The tension in the string connecting them is: (Neglect friction)

$A$ monkey of mass $20\,kg$ is holding a vertical rope. The rope can break when a mass of $25\,kg$ is suspended from it. What is the maximum acceleration with which the monkey can climb up along the rope (in $,m/s^2$)?

In the arrangement shown,the mass $m$ will ascend with an acceleration (Pulley and rope are massless).

The pulleys and strings shown in the figure are smooth and of negligible mass. For the system to remain in equilibrium,the angle $\theta$ should be:

Two blocks of masses $m$ and $2m$ are connected by a metal wire of negligible mass and having cross-sectional area $A$,passing over a smooth fixed pulley as shown in the figure. If the masses are released from rest,then the stress produced in the wire is:
