The weight of a bucket is 186 N. The bucket is being raised by two ropes. The free-body diagram shows the forces acting on the bucket. The acceleration of the b class=

Verified Answer :

Fnet=(115+106)-186= 34 N

mass=Force/g= 186N/9.8m/s^2 = 18.98 kg

a=fnet/mass => 34N/18.98kg = 1.79 m/s^2

so A= 1.8m/s^2

The acceleration of the bucket is required.

The acceleration of the bucket is \(1.793\ \text{m/s}^2\) upwards.

\(F_1\) = 115 N

\(F_2\) = 105 N

\(F_g\) = Weight of bucket = 186 N

\(g\) = Acceleration due to gravity = \(9.81\ \text{m/s}^2\)

\(m\) = Mass of bucket

\(a\) = Acceleration of bucket

Mass of the bucket is

\(F_g=mg\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{F_g}{g}\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{186}{9.81}\)

The force balance of the system is

\(F_1+F_2=F_g+F\\\Rightarrow F_1+F_2=F_g+ma\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{F_1+F_2-F_g}{m}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{115+105-186}{\dfrac{186}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow a=1.793\ \text{m/s}^2\)

The acceleration of the bucket is \(1.793\ \text{m/s}^2\) upwards.
