. A rope is being used to pull a mass of 10 kg vertically upward. Determine the tension on the rope, if starting from rest, the mass acquires a velocity of 4 ms-1 in 8s [g= 10ms-2]

Sagot :

[tex]\text{Given that,}\\\\\text{Mass, m =10 kg}\\\\\text{Time, t = 8 sec}\\\\\text{Velocity, v = 4~m/s}\\\\\text{When a body is moving upwards,}\\\\\text{Tension,}~ T=mg +ma\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=mg+m\left(\dfrac{v-u}t \right)\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=10(10)+10\left(\dfrac{4-0}8\right)\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=100+10\left(\dfrac 12\right)\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=100+5\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=105~N[/tex]
