Chapter 4, Problem 44P
(II) As shown in Fig. 4-41, five balls (masses 2.00, 2.05, 2.10, 2.15, 2.20kg) hang from a crossbar. Each mass is supported by “5-lb test” fishing line which will break when its tension force exceeds 22.2 N (= 5 lb). When this device is placed in an elevator, which accelerates upward, to the 2.05 and 2.00 kg masses do not break. Within what range is the elevator’s acceleration?
