Using a rope that will snap if the tension in it exceeds 356 n, you need to lower a bundle of old roofing material weighing 478 n from a point 7.50 m above the ground. (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?

a) 2.5 m/s²

b) 6.12 m/s

Explanation:

Tension of rope = T = 356N

Weight of material = W = 478 N

Distance from the ground = s = 7.5 m

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.81 m/s²

Mass of material = m = 478/9.81 = 48.72

Final velocity before the bundle hits the ground = v

Initial velocity = u = 0

Acceleration experienced by the material when being lowered = a

a) W-T = ma

⇒478-356 = 48.72×a

⇒a = 2.5 m/s²

∴ Acceleration achieved by the material is 2.5 m/s²

b) v²-u² = 2as

⇒v²-0 = 2×2.5×7.5

⇒v² = 37.5

⇒v = 6.12 m/s

∴ Velocity of the material before hitting the ground is 6.12 m/s

explanation:

there is no change in the electric potential energy as it is in rest on both conditions.

i think the answer would be reserve.
