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:

  • A
    Zero
  • B
    $10\,m/s^2$ upward
  • C
    $5\,m/s^2$ upward
  • D
    $5\,m/s^2$ downward

In the system shown in the adjoining figure,the tension $T_2$ is

$A$ uniform chain of length $2L$ is hanging in an equilibrium position. If end $B$ is given a slightly downward displacement,the imbalance causes an acceleration. Here,the pulley is small and smooth,and the string is inextensible. Find the velocity $v$ of the chain when it slips out of the pulley (height of pulley from floor $> 2L$).

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 $\,ms^{-2}$)

Two blocks of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are suspended from the ends of a light string passing over a smooth fixed pulley. If the pulley is pulled up with an acceleration $a_0 = g$, then the tension in the string will be

The ideal mechanical advantage of the combination of pulleys shown is
