A 1.50 m -long. 540 g rope pulls a 9.00 kg block of ice across a horizontal, frictionless surface. The block accelerates at 2.50 m/s^2 . How much force pulls forward on the ice. the rope? Express your answer with the appropriate units. Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Solution

given,

mass of rope = 540 gm

mass of block = 9 kg

acceleration = 2.5 m/s^2

force = mass * acceleration

force on rope = (9 + 0.54) * 2.5

force on rope = 23.85 N

force on block = 9 * 2.5

force on block = 22.5 N
