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 spheres $P$ and $Q$,each of mass $200 \text{ g}$,are attached to a string of length $1 \text{ m}$ as shown in the figure. The string and the spheres are then whirled in a horizontal circle about $O$ at a constant angular speed. The ratio of the tension in the string between $P$ and $Q$ to that between $P$ and $O$ is (where $P$ is at the mid-point of the line joining $O$ and $Q$).

$A$ monkey is descending from the branch of a tree with constant acceleration. If the breaking strength of the branch is $75 \%$ of the weight of the monkey,what is the minimum acceleration with which the monkey can slide down without breaking the branch?

What will be the acceleration of the system and tension in the rope connecting $5\,kg$ and $1\,kg$ blocks?

If the breaking strength of a rope is $\frac{4}{3}$ times the weight of a person,then the maximum acceleration with which the person can safely climb up the rope is ($g$ = acceleration due to gravity).
