A 55kg bungee jumper has fallen far enough that her bungee cord is beginning to stretch and resist her downward motion . Find the ( magnitude and direction ) exerted on her by the bungee cord at an instant when her downward acceleration has a magnitude of 7.1m/s2​

Respuesta :

Answer:

148.5 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a bungee jumper, m = 55 kg

The downward acceleration, a = 7.1 m/s²

We need to find the net force acting on the jumper. As it is moving in downward direction, net force is :

T = m(g-a)

Put all the values,

T = 55(9.8 - 7.1)

= 148.5 N

So, the force exerted on the bungee cord is 148.5  N.

Answer:

The downward force is 148.5 N.

Explanation:

mass, m = 55 kg

downwards acceleration, a = 7.1 m/s^2

Let the force is F.

According to the newton's second law

m g - F = m a

F = m (g - a)

F = 55 (9.8 - 7.1)

F = 148.5 N
