Suppose that your mass is 95 kg, and you are standing on a scale fastened to the floor of an elevator. The scale measures force and is calibrated in newtons. What does the scale read (in units of Newtons) when the elevator is descending with downward acceleration of magnitude 1.3 m/s2? (No need decimal point and maximum of 1% of error is accepted in your answer. Take g=9.8 m/s2.)

A block of mass M is suspended at rest by two strings attached to walls, as shown in the figure. The left string is horizontal with tension force T2 and and the right string with tension force T1 makes an angle θ with the horizontal. T1 is measured to be 47 N, and θ = 50.0°.

A skydiver weighing 178 lbf (including equipment) falls vertically downward from an altitude of 5000 ft and opens the parachute after 17s of free fall. Assume that the force of air resistance, which is directed opposite to the velocity, is 0.76 |v| when the parachute is closed and 12 |v| when the parachute is open, where the velocity v is measured in ft/s. Use g = 32 ft/s². Round your answers to two decimal places.
