A 686 N park ranger uses a basket and a rope-pulley system to transport an injured sea turtle up to a plateau, as shown in the figure. The sea turtle and basket together have a mass of 50.0 kg. The ranger holds firmly onto the rope and walks away from the cliff, speeding up at a steady rate of 0.300 m/ 2. He thereby causes the basket (and the turtle) to accelerate straight upwards at the same rate. Assume that the rope has negligible weight and that the pulley is ideal, having no friction in its bearing. Also assume that as the ranger trudges along, his feet do not slip on the ground. 26. The tension in the rope is equal to A. 490 N. B. 686 N. C. 475 N. D. 505 N. E. 196 N. 27. The frictional force which the ground exerts on the ranger's feet has a magnitude of C. 526 N. A. 490 N. B. 511 N. D. 196 N. E. 707 N.

A small object is initially at rest at the top of a large solid sphere that is fixed on the ground. The small object then begins to slide along the surface of the large solid sphere, without friction. V₁ = 0 RI Part (a) Find the angle at which the small object loses contact with the large solid sphere. Part (b) Find the maximum horizontal distance traveled by the small object before it hits the ground. Take (xi, y₁) = (0,2R) as the coordinates for the top of the large solid sphere.
A 132 kg crate is sitting at the top of a ramp, which is inclined at an angle of 20 degrees with respect to the horizontal. Someone gives the crate a quick shove to get it moving, after which it slides down the ramp without any further assistance. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the ramp is µs = 0.24. What is the magnitude of the acceleration (in m/s²) of the crate?
Objects of masses m1 = 4.00 kg and m2 = 9.00 kg are connected by a light string dial passes over a frictionless pulley as in Figure. The object m1 is held at rest on the floor, and m2 rests on a fixed incline of θ = 40.0°. The objects are released from rest, and m2 slides 1.00 m down the incline in 4.00s. Determine (a) the acceleration of each object, (b) the tension in the string, and (c) the coefficient of kinetic friction between m2 and the incline.
A woman pulls a cloth out from under a 200 g bowl sitting on a table. The bowl is 30.0 cm from the far edge of the cloth, and the cloth exerts a friction force of 0.125 N on the bowl. Assume the cloth is pulled with a constant horizontal acceleration of 2.80 m/s2. What distance (in m) does the bowl travel relative to the top of the table? (Assume the cloth moves in the +x-direction and notice that it moves more than 30.0 cm relative to the top of the table.)
Consider two blocks connected . Block A has mass 2.00 kg, and block B has mass 5.00 kg. The table on which B sits is frictionless, the cord connecting the blocks is light and flexible, and the pulley is light and frictionless. The horizontal force F S has magnitude F = 20.0 N, and block B moves to the left with an acceleration of 1.50 m/s2. What is the tension in the cord that connects the two blocks?

When he cuts the rope where it is tied to the floor, the chandelier will fall, and he will be pulled up toward a balcony above. Ignore the friction between the rope and the beams over which it slides, and find (a) the acceleration with which Robin is pulled upward and (b) the tension in the rope while Robin escapes.

Gibbons, small Asian apes, move by brachiation, swinging below a handhold to move forward to the next handhold. A 9.0 kg gibbon has an arm length (hand to shoulder) of 0.60 m. We can model its motion as that of a point mass swinging at the end of a 0.60-m-long, massless rod. At the lowest point of its swing, the gibbon is moving at 3.5 m/s. What upward force must a branch provide to support the swinging gibbon?
