$A$ 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 $g = 10 \ m/s^2$).

Consider a body of mass $3\,kg$ at rest on a smooth horizontal table. This body is connected by a light string,which passes over a smooth pulley at the edge of the table,to another body of mass $2\,kg$ hanging freely. This $2\,kg$ mass is released from rest. Now consider the following statements:
$(A)$ The masses remain at rest.
$(B)$ The $3\,kg$ mass moves uniformly while the $2\,kg$ mass moves with acceleration $\frac{2}{5}g\,m/s^2$.
$(C)$ Both bodies move with acceleration $\frac{2}{5}g\,m/s^2$.
$(D)$ The tension in the string near the first body is more than that near the second body.
$(E)$ The tension in the string is $\frac{6g}{5}\,N$.
