  • A
    $4\,N$
  • B
    $6\,N$
  • C

Three blocks of mass $5 \ kg$ each are suspended from a ceiling as shown in the figure. The value of $\frac{T_3}{T_1}$ is .............

Two weights of mass $m_{1}$ and $m_{2} (> m_{1})$ are joined by an inextensible string of negligible mass passing over a fixed frictionless pulley. The magnitude of the acceleration of the loads is

When the system is allowed to fall freely,the tension in the string between the $10 \, kg$ and $5 \, kg$ masses is .......... $N$.

$A$ monkey of mass $50\,kg$ climbs on a rope which can withstand the tension $(T)$ of $350\,N$. If the monkey initially climbs down with an acceleration of $4\,m/s^2$ and then climbs up with an acceleration of $5\,m/s^2$,choose the correct option $(g = 10\,m/s^2)$.
