Find the tension in the rope

Reference no: EM13710967

Compute all parts of given question:

Question: A gymnast of mass 50.0kg hangs from a vertical rope attached to the ceiling. You can ignore the weight of the rope and assume that the rope does not stretch. Use the value 9.81m/s2 for the acceleration of gravity.

Part A: Calculate the tension T in the rope if the gymnast hangs motionless on the rope.

Part B: Calculate the tension T in the rope if the gymnast climbs the rope at a constant rate.

Part C: Calculate the tension T in the rope if the gymnast climbs up the rope with an upward acceleration of magnitude 0.900m/s2.

Part D: Calculate the tension T in the rope if the gymnast slides down the rope with a downward acceleration of magnitude 0.900m/s2.

Can someone please explain what the heck is going on?
