Question

In the given figure a monkey of mass $m$ is climbing a rope hanging from the roof with acceleration a. the coefficient of static friction between the body of the monkey and the rope is $μ$ find the direction and value of friction on the monkey.

Open in App

Solution

If there would be no friction between monkey and the rope, the monkey will slide down the ground. It is the frictional force which take him in upward direction.
So,
$F - m g = m a$
$F = m g + m a$
$F = m (g + a) ↑$

A monkey is climbing on a rope that goes over a smooth light pulley and supports a block of equal mass at thr other end Figure. Shoe that whatever force the monkey exerts on the rope, the monkey and the block move in the same direction with equal acceleration. If initially both were at rest, their separation will not change as time passes.

In the given figure a monkey of mass m is climbing a rope hanging from the roof with acceleration a. the coefficient of static friction between the body of the monkey and the rope is μ find the direction and value of friction on the monkey.

If there would be no friction between monkey and the rope, the monkey will slide down the ground. It is the frictional force which take him in upward direction.So,F−mg=maF=mg+maF=m(g+a)↑
