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

A

`5m//s^(2)`

B

`10m//s^(2)`

C

`25m//s^(2)`

D

`2.5m//s^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D


`therefore T-mg=ma`
`therefore T_("max")=250`
`therefore 250-200=ma`
`therefore a=(50)/(20)=2.5 m//s^(2)`
