Tow men of masses m_(1)and m_(2) hold on the opposite ends of a rope passing over a frictionless pulley. The men m_(1) climbs up the pore with an acceleration of 1.2m//s^(2) relative to the rope. The mann m_(2) climbs up the rope with an acceleration of 2m//s^(2) relative to the rope. Find the tension in the rope if m_(1)40 kg and m_(2)=60kg. Also find the time after the time after which they will be at same horizontal level if they start from rest and are initially separted by 5 m.

Figure 5-55 shows a man sitting in a bosun's chair that dangles from a mass-less rope, which runs over a massless, frictionless pulley and back down to the man's hand. The combined mass of man and chair is 103.0 kg. With what force magnitude must the man pull on the rope if he is to rise (a) with a constant velocity and (b) with an upward acceleration of 1.30" m"//"s"^(2) ?

A cat of mass m = 1 kg climbs to a rope hung over a leight frictionless pulley. The opposite end of the rope is tied to a weight of mass M = 2m lying on a smooth horizontal plane. What is the tension of the rope where the cat move upwards with in acceleration a = 2 m//s^(2) relative to the rope ?
