MCQ
In order to raise a mass of $100\,kg$ a man of mass $60\,kg$ fastens a rope to it and passes the rope over a smooth pulley. He climbs the rope with an acceleration $5g/4$ relative to the rope. The tension in the rope is ....... $N$. $(g = 10\,m/s^2)$
  • A
    $1432$
  • B
    $928$
  • $1218$
  • D
    $642$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$1218$
c
$\mathrm{T}-100 \mathrm{g}=100 \mathrm{a}$           $...(i)$

$\mathrm{T}-60 \mathrm{g}=60\left(\frac{5 \mathrm{g}}{4}-\mathrm{a}\right)$       $...(ii)$

from $(i)$ and $(ii)$

$\mathrm{T}=1218 \mathrm{N}$
