Mr. M is accelerating up the wall at a rate of 0.75 m/s^2. The rope attached to the harness makes an angle of 15 degrees with the wall. If his mass is 95kg. (a) What the magnitude of the force of tension in the rope? (b) How hard do his leg have to push against the wall to keep him in the appropriate body position to walk up the wall?
