Question

53. A firefighter of mass 80 kg slides down a vertical pole

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer is given below:

Explanation:

Given Data:

mass = 80kg

acceleration = 4 ms

force = 800N

Find out:

friction = ?

Formula:

F-friction = weight - f-net

Solution:

weight = (80)(10)

           = 800 N

F-net = ma =(80)(4) = 320N

F-friction = weight - F-net

               =800 N - 320N

               =480N

Answer :

Friction = 480 N
