Block A of mass m//2 is connected to one...

Block A of mass `m//2` is connected to one end of light rope which passes over a pulley as shown in fig. A man of mass m climbs the other end of rope with a relative acceleration of `g//6` with respect to rope. Find the acceleration of block A and tension in the rope.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`(4g)/(9), (13mg)/(18)`

`mg - T = m (a - (g)/(6))` …(i)
`rArr T - (m)/(2)g = (m)/(2)a` …(ii)
For solving eq. (i) & (ii)
`a = (4g)/(9)` & `T = (13)/(18)mg`

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.
