A horizontal rope is tied to a 40 kg box on frictionless ice. What is the tension of the rope if: Part A: The box is at rest Part B: The box moves at a steady vx = 4.0 m/s? Part C: The box vx = 4.0 m/s and ax = 5.00 m/s^2?

Step 1
Step 1: When the box is at rest, the tension in the rope is equal to 0 because there is no acceleration or movement. Show more…
