A monkey of mass \(50~\text{kg}\) climbs on a rope which can withstand the tension \((T)\) of \(350~\text{N}\). The monkey initially climbs down with an acceleration of \(4~\text{m/s}^2\) and then climbs up with an acceleration of \(5~\text{m/s}^2.\)
(take \(g=10~\text{m/s}^2\))
Choose the correct option from the given ones:
1. \(T=700~\text N\) while climbing upward.
2. \(T=350~\text N\) while going downward.
3. The rope will break while the monkey climbs upward.
4. The rope will break while the monkey goes downward.

A \(1\) kg mass is suspended from the ceiling by a rope of length 4 m. A horizontal force 'F' is applied at the midpoint of the rope so that the rope makes an angle of \(45^{\circ}\) with respect to the vertical axis as shown in figure. The magnitude of F is: (Assume that the system is in equilibrium and g = 10 m/s2)
