A 52 kg circus performer is to slide down a rope that will break if the tension exceeds 425 N. (a) What happens if the performer hangs stationary on the rope? (b) At what magnitude of acceleration does the performer just avoid breaking the rope?
Using a rope that will snap if the tension in it exceeds 387 N, you need to lower a bundle of old roofing material weighing 449 N from a point 6.1 m above the ground. Obviously if you hang the bundle on the rope, it will snap. So, you allow the bundle to accelerate downward. (a)What magnitude of the bundle’s acceleration will put the rope on the verge of snapping? (b) At that acceleration, with what speed would the bundle hit the ground?
You are designing a high-speed elevator for a new skyscraper. The elevator will have a mass limit of 2400 kg (including passengers). For passenger comfort, you choose the maximum ascent speed to be 18.0 m/s, the maximum descent speed to be 10.0 m/s, and the maximum acceleration magnitude to be 3.30 m/s2. Ignore friction.
(a)What is the maximum upward force that the supporting cables exert on the elevator car?
___kN
(b)What is the minimum upward force that the supporting cables exert on the elevator car?
____kN
