For the system shown in the figure,$m_1 > m_2 > m_3 > m_4$. Initially,the system is at rest in equilibrium. If the string joining $m_4$ and the ground is cut,then just after the string is cut:
Statement $I$: $m_1$,$m_2$,and $m_3$ remain stationary.
Statement $II$: The value of acceleration of all the $4$ blocks can be determined.
Statement $III$: Only $m_4$ remains stationary.
Statement $IV$: Only $m_4$ accelerates.
Statement $V$: All the four blocks remain stationary.
Now,choose the correct option.

One end of a string of length $l$ is connected to a particle of mass $m$ and the other to a small peg on a smooth horizontal table. If the particle moves in a circle with speed $v$,the net force on the particle (directed towards the centre) is ($T$ is the tension in the string).

One end of a massless rope,which passes over a massless and frictionless pulley $P$,is tied to a hook while the other is free. The maximum tension the rope can bear is $360 \ N$. With what value of maximum safe acceleration (in $m \ s^{-2}$) can a man of $60 \ kg$ climb on the rope?

Two masses $2 \, kg$ and $3 \, kg$ are attached to the ends of a string passed over a pulley fixed at the top. The tension and acceleration are:

$A$ particle of small mass $m$ is joined to a very heavy body of mass $M$ by a light string passing over a light pulley. Both bodies are free to move. The total downward force on the pulley is
