Question

A pack of bricks of mass 100kg is hoisted up the
side of a house. Find the force in the lifting rope
when the bricks are lifted with an accelerntion of
0.25m/s?.

Answers

GPT 3.5
To find the force in the lifting rope, we need to use Newton's second law of motion, which states that force is equal to mass multiplied by acceleration (F = ma).

Given:
Mass of the bricks (m) = 100 kg
Acceleration (a) = 0.25 m/s^2

Using the given values in the formula:

Force (F) = mass (m) x acceleration (a)
F = 100 kg x 0.25 m/s^2
F = 25 N

Therefore, the force in the lifting rope when the bricks are lifted with an acceleration of 0.25 m/s^2 is 25 Newtons.
