A monkey of mass `m` clings a rope to a slung over a fixed pulley .The opposite end of the rope is tried to a weight of mass `M` tying on a horizontal table is `mu` Find the acceleration of weight and the tension of the rope for two cases .The monkey move downward with respect to the rope with an acceleration b.

The acceleration of weight is

A

`(2m(g+b)-mu Mg)/(M +2m)`

B

`(m(g+b)-mu Mg)/(2(M + m)`

C

`(m(g+b)-3mu Mg)/(M +3m)`

D

`(m(g+b)-mu Mg)/(M +2m)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

As the monkey move downward with respect to rope with an acceleration b. absulute acceleration is `a+ b`, where a is the acceleration of rope, Therefore equation of motion are
`mg - T = m(a+b)`…(i)
`T - mu Mg = Ma`…(ii)
Putting the value of T from Eqs(ii) and (i) we get
`(m - mu M)g = (M+m)a +mb`
`rArr (m(g - b) - mu Mg)/((M +m))= a`
`T = mu Mg+ (Mmg - Mmb - mu M^(2)g)/(M +m)`
`= (mu M^(2)g + mu Mmg + Mmg - Mmb- mu M^(2)g)/(M +m)`
`= (Mm(mu g +g - b))/(M +m)`

A monkey of massm clings to a rope slung over a fixed pulley. The opposite end of the rope is tied to a weight of mass M lying on a horizontal plat (Fig.). Neglecting friction find the acceleration of both bodies (relative to the plate) and the tension of the rope for the three cases: (1) the monkey does not move with respect to the rope, (2) the monkey moves upwards with respect to the rope with acceleration b, (3) the monkey moves downwards with respect to the rope with an acceleration b.

A monkey of mass m climbs up to a rope hung over a fixed pulley. The opposite end of the rope is tied to a weight of mass M lying on a horizontal plane. Neglecting the friction, find the acceleration of both the bodies (relative to the plane) and the tension of the rope for the three cases: (i) The monkey does not move with respect to the rope (ii) The monkey moves upwards with respect to the rope with acceleration a. (iii) The monkey moves downwards with respect to the rope, with acceleration a.
