What force does the seat exert on you

Reference no: EM13496247

A cat is stuck in a tree. You are designated with the job to get it out, yet you do not want to climb the tree, because you may get stuck as well. Instead you set up a pulley system. A rope (consider it massless) runs from the seat you sit on over an ideal pulley and then to your hand. You pull on the loose end of the rope with a force of 348 N. You weigh 612 N and the seat you sit on weighs 16.0 N.

(a) What is your acceleration?

(b) What force does the seat exert on you?

(a)_____ m/s2

(b)_____ N
