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 10 kg monkey climbs up a massless rope that runs over a frictionless tree limb and back down to a 15 kg package on the ground (Fig. 5-56). (a) What is the magnitude of the least acceleration the monkey must have if it is to lift the package off the ground? If, after the package has been lifted, the monkey stops its climb and holds on to the rope, what are the (b) magnitude and (c) direction of the monkey's acceleratiohn and (d) the tension in the rope ?

A monkey is climbing on a rope that goes over a smooth light pulley and supports a block of equal mass at the other end. Show that whatever force the monkey exerts on the rope, the monkey and the block move in the same direction with

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 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?

In the arrangement shown in the fig. a monkey of mass M keeps itself as well as block A at rest by firmly holding the rope. Rope is massless and the pulley is ideal. Height of the monkey and block A from the floor is h and 2h respectively [h = 2.5 m] (a) The monkey loosens its grip on the rope and slides down to the floor. At what height from the ground is block A at the instant the money hits the ground? (b) Another block of mass equal to that of A is stuck to the block A and the system is released. The monkey decides to keep itself at height h above the ground and it allows the rope to slide through its hand. With what speed will the block strike the ground? (c) In the situation described in (b), the monkey decides to prevent the block from striking the floor. The monkey remains at height h till the block crosses it. At the instant the block is crossing the monkey it begins climbing up the rope. Find the minimum acceleration of the monkey relative to the rope, so that the block is not able to hit the floor. Do you think that a monkey can climb with such an acceleration? ( g = 10ms^(-2) )

Two masses 2 kg and 4 kg are connected at two ends of light inextensible string passing over a frictionless pulley . If the masses are released , then find the accelaration of the masses and the tension in the string .

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 money of mass 40 kg climbs up a rope, of breaking load 600 N hanging from a ceiling. If it climbs up the rope with the maximum possible acceleration, then the time taken by monkey to climb up is [length of rope is 10 m]

A light string passes over a frictionless pulley. To one of its ends a mass of 6 kg is attached. To its other end a mass of 10 kg is attached. The tension in the thread will be
