Question
At what minimum acceleration should a monkey slide down a rope whose breaking strength is two-thirds of the monkey's weight?
Answer: Option B
:
B
When a monkey is sliding down a rope, the net force acting on it is given by
ma = mg - T, where T is the breaking strength of the rope
⇒ ma = mg - 23 mg
⇒ a =g3
