Question

A 13.0km bucket is lowered vertically by a rope in which there is 170N of tension at a given instant. Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of the bucket. Is it up or down?

Answer 1

13.07m/s2 down

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the equation would be

Fnet/m=a

since tension is the only force mensioned that means that

170N/13.0kg=13.07 m/s2 down

acceleration is down
