Typically a scaffolding has two ropes to support it. One
on the left most side while the other one is on the right most side. Based on
equilibrium rule, the summation of forces must be 0. The downward force is the
weight of person and scaffolding, while the upward force are the tensions on
the two ropes, hence:
Weight person + Weight scaffolding = 2 * Tension
500 N + Weight scaffolding = 2 * 400 N
Weight scaffolding = 300 N
From 50km/h to 0km/h in 0.5s we need next acceleration:
First we convert km/h in m/s:
50km/h = 50*1000/3600=13.8888 m/s
a = v/t = 13.88888/0.5 = 27.77777 m/s^2
Now we use Newton's law:
F=m*a
F=1700*27.7777 = 47222N
If they are connected exactly as shown, nothing can happen.
<span> the </span>law of conservation of energy<span> states that the total </span>energy<span> of an isolated system remains constant it would be said to be conserved over time. </span>Energy<span> can neither be created nor destroyed but then rather, it transforms from one form to another.
hope this can help you ^_^</span>
