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?

The maximum acceleration with which a body of mass $200 \, kg$ is lowered into a well using a rope having a breaking force of $50 \, kg$-wt is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \, ms^{-2}$) (in $ \, ms^{-2}$)

$A$ hanging mass $M$ is connected to a four times larger mass $(4M)$ by using a string-pulley arrangement as shown in the figure. The larger mass is placed on a horizontal ice slab and is being pulled by a $2Mg$ force. In this situation,the tension in the string is $\frac{x}{5}Mg$. Find the value of $x$. Neglect the mass of the string and the friction between the block (larger mass) and the ice slab. (Given $g$ = acceleration due to gravity)

Two unequal masses are connected on two sides of a light string passing over a light and smooth pulley as shown in the figure. The system is released from rest. The larger mass $(2\, kg)$ is stopped $1\, s$ after the system is set into motion and then released. Find the time elapsed before the string becomes tight again. (Take $g = 10\, m/s^2$)

Two blocks are connected by a string as shown in the diagram. The upper block is hung by another string. $A$ force $F$ applied on the upper string produces an acceleration of $2\,m/s^2$ in the upward direction in both the blocks. If $T$ and $T'$ are the tensions in the two parts of the string,then $T$ and $T'$ are:

In the system shown in the adjoining figure,the tension $T_2$ is
