A mover has to move a heavy sofa of mass 118 kg to the second floor of the house. He uses a rope to pull the sofa up a ramp from the first to the second floor. As he pulls the sofa he makes sure that the rope is parallel to the surface of the ramp which is at 30.0° to the horizontal. If friction between the sofa and the ramp is negligible, and the sofa has an acceleration of 0.700 m/s2, find the tension in the rope (in N). N
Consider a person standing on a scale in an elevator. If the elevator accelerates upwards with an acceleration of 1.27 m/s2 and the person has a mass of 79.2 kg, what would the scale read? HINT: you need to take into account the acceleration due to gravity, as well as that of the elevator.

Two skaters are on an icy pond (no friction). They have masses m1 = 65.0 kg and m2 = 80.0 kg. They are each holding one end of a rope. The heavier skater starts exerting a force of F = 125 N. The rope tautens so that it has a tension T. What is the acceleration of each skater, and what is the tension in the rope?
