A `20 kg` monkey has a firm hold on a light rope that passes over a frictionless pulley and is attached to a `20 cm` bunch if bananas. The monkey looks upwards , sees the bananas and starts to climb the rope to get them.
(a) As the monkey climbs ,do the bananas move up , move down or remain at rest?
(b) As the monkey climbs ,does the distance between the lonkey and the banana decrease, increase or remain contact?
(c) The monkey releases her hold on the rope .What happens to the distance between the monkey and the bananas while she is falling ?
(d) Before reaching the ground , the monkey grabs the rope of stop har fall. What do the bananas do?

Force diagram on both sides is always similar . Therefore motion of both sides is always similar. For exampal, if monkey accelerate opwards ,then `T gt 20 g` .But same `T` is on `RHS` also

Therefore bananas also accelerate upwards.

As shown in figure a monkey of 20g mass is holding a light rope that passes over a frictionless pulley. A bunch of bananas of the same mass is tied to the other end of rope. Inorder to get access to the bunch the monkey starts climbing the rope. The distance between the monkey and the bananas is

A monkey is a reston a weightless rope which goes over a pulley and is tied to a bunch of bananas at the other end. The weight of the bunch of bananas isexactly the same as that of the monkey. The pulley is frictionless and weightless. The monkey starts to climb up the rope to reach the bananas. As he climbs, the distance between him and the bananas will

A 12 kg monkey climbs a light rope as shown in figure. The rope passes over a pulley and is attached to a 16 kg bunch of bananas. Mass and friction in the pulley are negligible so that the pulley's only effect is to reverse the direction of the rope. What is the maximum acceleration the monkey can have without lifting the bananas?

A 12kg monkey climbs a light rope.The rope passes over a pulley and is attached to a 16kg bunch of bananas resting on floor. Mass and friction in the pulley are negligible so that the pulley's only effect is to reverse the direction of the rope. What is the maximum acceleration the monkey can have without lifting the bananas ? (Take g=10m//s^(2) )

Consider the situation as shown. When a ball is thrown aiming the monkey, at the same time the monkey drops himself. Will the ball hit the monkey ?

A massless rope is strung over a frictionless pulley. A monkey holds onto one end of the rope, and a mirror, having the same weight as the monkey, is attached to the other end of the rope at the monkey's level.Can the monkey get away from its image seen in the mirror (a) by climbing up the rope,(b) by climbing down the rope, or (c) by releasing the rope ?
