A monkey of mass 40 kg climbs on a rope (Fig. 5.20) which can stand a maximum tension of 600 N. In which of the following cases will the rope break: the monkey (a) climbs up with an acceleration of 6 m s¯² (b) climbs down with an acceleration of 4 m s¯² (c) climbs up with a uniform speed of 5 m s¯¹ (d) falls down the rope nearly freely under gravity? (Ignore the mass of the rope). |
