A 6.00 kg mass hangs from a cable.

a. What is the tension in that cable?

b. The object is given an upward acceleration of 3.00 m/s2 by a force pulling straight up on the cable. What is the tension in the cable during that acceleration?

c. The force on the cable is reduced to an amount that allows the object to fall with a downward acceleration of 5.00 m/s2. What is the resulting tension in the cable during that acceleration?

d. The object is allowed to go into free fall. What is the tension on the cable at that point?

Description: A single mass m1 = 3.9 kg hangs from a spring in a motionless elevator. The spring is extended x = 11 cm from its unstretched length. the spring constant of the spring is 347.45 N/m Now, three masses m1 = 3.9 kg, m2 = 11.7 kg and m3 = 7.8 kg hang from three identical springs in a motionless elevator. The springs all have the same spring constant that you just calculated above. the force the top spring...

A bucket of water of mass 15.9 kg is suspended by a rope wrapped around a windlass, that is a solid cylinder with diameter 0.350 m with mass 12.4 kg . The cylinder pivots on a frictionless axle through its center. The bucket is released from rest at the top of a well and falls a distance 10.2 m to the water. You can ignore the weight of the rope. Part A What is the tension in the rope while...
