*82. GO To hoist himself into a tree, a 72.0-kg man ties one end of a nylon rope around his waist and throws the other end over a branch of the tree. He then pulls downward on the free end of the rope with a force of 358 N. Neglect any friction between the rope and the branch, and determine the man's upward acceleration.

31. A truck with mass 2000 kg tows a boat and trailer of total mass 500 kg. The frictional coefficient for the truck is 0.080 and for the trailer is 0.050 (this is due to “rolling resistance” of the tires). The force of the truck’s drive wheels pushing backward on the pavement is 3.0 kN. (a) Determine the acceleration rate of the truck and trailer moving forward together. (b) Determine the amount of force the truck’s hitch exerts forward on the trailer.

Seat belts and air bags save lives by reducing the forces exerted on the driver and passengers in an automobile collision. Cars are designed with a "crumple zone" in the front of the car. In the event of an impact, the passenger compartment decelerates over a distance of about 1 m as the front of the car crumples. An occupant restrained by seat belts and air bags decelerates with the car. By contrast, an unrestrained occupant keeps moving forward with no loss of speed (Newton's first law!) until hitting the dashboard or windshield. These are unyielding surfaces, and the unfortunate occupant then decelerates over a distance of only about 5 mm. Part A A 65 kg person is in a head-on collision. The car's speed at impact is 13 m/s. Estimate the net force on the person if he or she is wearing a seat belt and if the air bag deploys. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
