$A$ man is pulling on a rope attached to a block on a smooth horizontal table. The tension in the rope will be the same at all points:

  • A
    If and only if the rope is not accelerated
  • B
    If and only if the rope is massless
  • C
    If either the rope is not accelerated or is massless
  • D
    Always

Two bodies of mass $3\, kg$ and $4\, kg$ are suspended at the ends of a massless string passing over a frictionless pulley. The acceleration of the system is ........ $m/s^2$ $(g = 9.8\, m/s^2)$.

One end of a light string is fixed to a clamp on the ground and the other end passes over a fixed frictionless pulley as shown in the figure. It makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the ground. The clamp can tolerate a vertical force of $40 \,N$. If a monkey of mass $5 \,kg$ were to climb up the rope,then the maximum acceleration in the upward direction with which it can climb safely is $\left(g=10 \,ms^{-2}\right)$ (in $\,ms^{-2}$)

The acceleration of the $2\,kg$ block if the free end of the string is pulled with a force of $20\,N$ as shown in the figure is:

Three blocks of masses $m_1=4 \, kg$, $m_2=2 \, kg$, and $m_3=4 \, kg$ are connected with ideal strings passing over a smooth, massless pulley as shown in the figure. The acceleration of the blocks will be ......... $m/s^2$ $(g=10 \, m/s^2)$.

$A$ $4 \text{ kg}$ mass is suspended as shown in the figure. All pulleys are frictionless and the spring constant $K$ is $8 \times 10^3 \text{ Nm}^{-1}$. The extension in the spring is $\left(g=10 \text{ ms}^{-2}\right)$.
