If Rope Of Lift Breaks Suddenly The Tension Exerted By Physics QuestionIf Rope Of Lift Breaks Suddenly The Tension Exerted By Physics Question

If rope of lift breaks suddenly, the tension exerted by the surface of the lift (a = Acceleration of lift) is

Options

(a) mg
(b) m(g+a)
(c) zero
(d) m(g-a)

Correct Answer:

zero

Explanation:

If the rope suddenly breaks, acceleration = g
So substituting in formula, tension T=m(g−a)=0
