Answer:

The greater force will be required to overcome weight.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Newton’s second law of motion:

F = W = mg ………. (i)

Equation (i) shows that with the increase in mass the force or weight in the downward direction will increase. When climber packs too much gear then he has to apply more force in the upward direction to overcome his on weight and luggage. Therefore, it will be difficult for him to reach the summit before a storm blows in. In this way, this scenario is related with Newton’s law.
