The mass of a lift is $2000 \, kg$. When the tension in the supporting cable is $28000 \, N$,then its acceleration is:

  • A
    $30 \, m/s^2$ downwards
  • B
    $4 \, m/s^2$ upwards
  • C
    $4 \, m/s^2$ downwards
  • D
    $14 \, m/s^2$ upwards

If all surfaces are smooth,then the acceleration of mass $m_2$ will be $-$

$A$ block of mass $M$ is placed on a horizontal surface and is tied with an inextensible string to a block of mass $m$,as shown in the figure. $A$ block of mass $m_0$ is also placed on $M$. If the surface between $M$ and $m_0$ has a coefficient of friction $\mu$,find the tension in the string,assuming the system moves together.

Two blocks of $7\,kg$ and $5\,kg$ are connected by a heavy rope of mass $4\,kg$. An upward force of $200\,N$ is applied as shown in the diagram. The tension at the top of the heavy rope at point $P$ is ....... $N$ $(g = 10\,m/s^2)$.
