to a rope that passes over a frictionless pulley (Fig. P5.41), Nick pulls on the loose end of the rope with such a force that the spring scale reads 250 N. Nick's true weight is 320 N, and the chair weighs 160 N. Nick's feet are not touch- ing the ground. (a) Draw one pair of diagrams showing the forces for Nick and the chair considered as separate systems and another diagram for Nick and the chair considered as one system. (b) Show that the acceleration of the system is upward and find its magnitude. (c) Find the force Nick exerts on the chair.

A car accelerates down a hill (Fig. P4.87), going from rest to 30.0 m/s in 6.00 s. During the acceleration, a toy (m = 0.100 kg) hangs by a string from the cars ceiling. The acceleration is such that the string remains perpendicular to the ceiling. Determine (a) the angle and (b) the tension in the string. Figure P4.87
An impala is an African antelope capable of a remarkable vertical leap. In one recorded leap, a 45 kg impala went into a deep crouch, pushed straight up for 0.21 s, and reached a height of 2.5 m above the ground. To achieve this vertical leap, with what force did the impala push down on the ground? What is the ratio of this force to the antelope’s weight?
