5 second fall starting at 0 m/s
ball strikes ground at a speed = 49 meters per second.
The bodies of arthropods are supported, not by internal bones, but by a hardened exoskeleton<span> made of </span>chitin<span>, a substance produced by many non-arthropods as well. In arthropods, the nonliving exoskeleton is like a form-fitting suit of armor. It is produced by the "skin" and then hardens into a protective outer-covering.</span>
By applying Newton's second law of motion;
ma = mg - T
Where,
m = mass; a = downward accelerations (+ve value) or upward acceleration (-ve value); g = gravitational acceleration; T = tension.
For the current case, the velocity is constant therefore,
a = 0
Then,
0 = mg - T
T = mg = 115*9.81 = 1128.15 N
Tension in the cable is 1128.15 N.
