$A$ block of mass $M$ is lying on a horizontal frictionless surface. One end of a uniform rope of mass $M/2$ is fixed to the block, which is pulled in the horizontal direction by applying a force $F$ at the other end. The tension in the middle of the rope will be

  • A
    $F/3$
  • B
    $3F/4$
  • C
    $4F/5$
  • D
    $5F/6$

$A$ monkey of mass $20\,kg$ is holding a vertical rope. The rope will not break when a mass of $25\,kg$ is suspended from it but will break if the mass exceeds $25\,kg$. What is the maximum acceleration with which the monkey can climb up along the rope in $m/s^2$? (Take $g = 10\,m/s^2$)

$A$ monkey of mass $40 \, kg$ climbs on a rope which can stand a maximum tension of $600 \, N$. In which of the following cases will the rope break: the monkey
$(a)$ climbs up with an acceleration of $6 \, m \, s^{-2}$
$(b)$ climbs down with an acceleration of $4 \, m \, s^{-2}$
$(c)$ climbs up with a uniform speed of $5 \, m \, s^{-1}$
$(d)$ falls down the rope nearly freely under gravity? (Ignore the mass of the rope).

Two blocks,each having mass $M$,rest on frictionless surfaces as shown in the figure. If the pulleys are light and frictionless,and $M$ on the incline is allowed to move down,then the tension in the string will be
