when an object drops it accelerates at 9.8 mps so at 3 seconds the equation would be 9.8x3 which equals 29.4

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s² .  That means that a falling object
is always falling 9.8 m/s faster than it was falling 1 second earlier.

If an object is not slowed by air resistance, and has far enough to go
so that it's still falling after three whole seconds, then at the end of
three seconds it's falling at

           (9.8 m/s²) x (3 sec)  =  29.4 m/s

A woman living in a third-story apartment is moving out. Rather than carrying everything down the stairs, she decides to pack he
Flura [38]

Answer:

T = 480.2N

Explanation:

In order to find the required force, you take into account that the sum of forces must be equal to zero if the object has a constant speed.

The forces on the boxes are:

T-Mg=0      (1)

T: tension of the rope

M: mass of the boxes 0= 49kg

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

The pulley is frictionless, then, you can assume that the tension of the rope T, is equal to the force that the woman makes.

By using the equation (1) you obtain:

T=Mg=(49kg)(9.8m/s^2)=480.2N

The woman needs to pull the rope at 480.2N
