Aman is standing on a platform that is connected to a pulley arrangement, as the drawing shows. by pulling upward on the rope with a force the man can raise the platform and himself. the total mass of the man plus the platform is 118 kg. what pulling force should the man apply to create an upward acceleration of 1.20 m/s2?

The pulling force that should the man apply to create an upward acceleration is 141.6 N

Explanation:

Newton's second law can be stated as follows: The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

Newton's Second law can be expressed in the following formula:

F=m*a

Where:

F=Force

m=mass

a= acelleration

Then, we replace given values in the formula to know the force:

moving ball hits still ball. mover stops, hit ball moves. momentum transfer.

the total distance that martina travels that day is

(distance from home to mom's office) plus (distance from mom's office to school)

plus (distance from school to library) plus (distance from library to friend's house)

plus (distance from friend's house to martina's house).

(we don't know what any of these distance actually is.)
