A block of mass m is resting on a smooth horizontal surface. One end of a uniform rope of mass m/3 is fixed to the block, which is pulled in the horizontal direction by applying a force F at the other end. The tension in the middle of the rope is

Answer: (D)

Solution

Total mass = m + m/3 = 4m/3; acceleration a = F/(4m/3) = 3F/(4m). The tension at the midpoint of the rope accelerates
