An inventive child named Nick wants to reach an apple in a tree without climbing the tree. Sitting in a chair connected to a rope that passes over a frictionless pulley (see figure below), Nick pulls on the loose enc
of the rope with such a force that the spring scale reads 310 N. Nick's true weight is 310 N, and the chair weighs 160 N. Nick's feet are not touching the ground. Use g=9.8 m/s².
(b) Find Nick's acceleration, using upward as positive.
m/s²
(c) Find the magnitude of the force Nick exerts on the chair.
(d*) Instead Nick hands the rope with the scale to his friend Barney, who stands on the ground. Barney pulls on the rope so that the spring scale again reads 310 N. What is Nick's acceleration now, again using
upward as positive.
Which one of the following statements concerning kinetic energy is true?
(A Kinetic energy is directly proportional to velocity.
(B Kinetic energy is always equal to the potential energy.
Kinetic energy is always positive.
Kinetic energy is a quantitative measure of inertia.
