    (NOTE: In each of the three ropes, the tension force is the same at all points of the rope, on each side of the pulley.) You should find that the total upward force is 9R, and the total downward force is given as W =639 nt. Step 3.

  • The Effect of Height on a Normal Force

    At the bottom, where the track has a radius of curvature R, the car has a speed V and she feels 25% heavier than her actual weight (that is, Fn = 1.25 Fg, where Fn is the normal force the seat exerts on her).

  • High School Freshman Physics Practice Test: Tension, acceleration, velocity etc.

    Newton's third law states that when a first body exerts a force F1 on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force F2 = −F1 on the first body. This means that F1 and F2 are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

  • equilibrium readings of scales

    That's correct, but don't forget that the spring scale also exerts a force on the iron mass. The reading of the spring scale is in fact precisely this force (up to conversion factors if e.g. the scale is calibrated to show mass instead of weight).
