Two bodies of masses $10\; kg$ and $20\; kg$ respectively,kept on a smooth horizontal surface,are tied to the ends of a light string. $A$ horizontal force $F = 600\; N$ is applied to $(i)\; A$,$(ii)\; B$ along the direction of the string. What is the tension in the string in each case?

The maximum tension a rope can withstand is $60 \,kg$-wt. The ratio of maximum acceleration with which two boys of masses $20 \,kg$ and $30 \,kg$ can climb up the rope at the same time is

The figure shows two blocks connected by a light inextensible string. $A$ force of $10 \,N$ is applied on the bigger block at $60^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The tension in the string connecting the two masses is ....... $N$.

$A$ balloon carrying some sand of mass $M$ is moving down with a constant acceleration $a_0$. The mass $m$ of sand to be removed so that the balloon moves up with double the acceleration $2a_0$ is:

With what minimum acceleration can a fireman slide down a rope if the breaking strength of the rope is $\frac{2}{3}$ of his weight?

The figure shows a boy on a horizontal platform $A$ on a smooth horizontal surface,holding a rope attached to a box $B$. The boy pulls the rope with a constant force of $50 \ N$. (The boy does not slip over the platform). The combined mass of platform $A$ and the boy is $250 \ kg$,and that of box $B$ is $500 \ kg$. The velocity of $A$ relative to the box $B$,$5 \ s$ after the boy on $A$ begins to pull the rope,will be ............ $m/s$.
