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 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 20 kg monkey has a firm hold on a light rope that passes over a frictionless pulley and is attached to a 20 kg bunch of 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 monkey and the banana decrease, increase or remain same? (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 to stop her fall. What will happen to bananas ?

Two masses A and B of 15 kg and 10 kg are connected with a string passing over a frictionless pulley fixed at the corner of a table (as shown in figure). The coefficient of friction between the table and block is 0.4. The minimum mass of C, that may be placed on A to prevent it from moving is:
