A rope thrown over a pulley has a ladder with a man of mass `m` on one of its ends and a counter balancing mass `M` on its other end. The man climbs with a velocity `v_r` relative to ladder. Ignoring the masses of the pulley and the rope as well as the friction on the pulley axis, the velocity of the centre of mass of this system is:

A rope thrown over a pulley has a on one of its ends and a counterbalancing mass M on its other end. The man whose mass is m , climbs upwards by vec/_\r relative to the ladder and then stops. Ignoring masses of the pulley and the rope, as well as the friction the pulley axis, find the displacement of the centre of mass of this system.

A stationary pulley carries a rope whose one end supports a ladder with a man and the other end the counterweight of mass M. The man of mass m climbs up a distance l with respect to the ladder and then stops. Neglecting the mass of the rope and the friction in the pulley axle, find the displacement I of the centre of inertia of this system.

A stationary pulley carries a rope whose one end supports a ladder with a man and the other end the counterweight of mass M. The man of mass m climbs up a distance I^' with respect to the ladder and then stops. Neglecting the mass of the rope and the friction in the pulley axle, find the displacement I of the centre of inertia of this system.

A pulley fixed to the ceiling carried a thread with bodies of masses m_(1) and m_(2) attached to its ends. The mases of the pulley and the thread are negligible and friction is absent. Find the acceleration of the centre of mass of this system.

A baloon of mass M is stationary in air. It has a ladder on which a man of mass m is standing. If the man starts climbing up the ladder with a velocity v relative to ladder, the velocity of balloon is
