JEE Main2002PhysicsLaws of MotionActual
One end of a massless rope, which passes over a massless and frictionless pulley P is tied to a hook C while the other end is free. Maximum tension that the rope can bear is 360 ~N . With what value of maximum safe acceleration (in ms ⁻² ) can a man of 60 ~kg climb on the rope?
Options
- A16
- B6
- C4
- D8
Correct answer
C. 4
Step-by-step solution
T -60 ~g =60 a ; T =3000 ~N ; a =4 ~ms ⁻²
