Tarzan, who weighs 592 N, swings from a cliff at the end of a convenient vine that is 20 m long (see the figure). From the top of the cliff to the bottom of the swing, he descends by 4.5 m. The vine will break if the force on it exceeds 1060 N. What would the greatest force on the vine be during the swing?

A stunt performer swings on a 33.0 m long cable initially inclined at an angle of 31.0° with the vertical. (Assume the cable has negligible mass.) a. What is the stunt performer's speed (in m/s) at the bottom of the swing if she starts from rest? b. What is the stunt performer's speed (in m/s) at the bottom of the swing if instead she pushes off with a speed of 6.00 m/s?
In the image shown, the child has a mass of 27kg. The chains each have a length of 2.4m. As the child swings, she moves along a path which is part of a vertical circle. When the child is at the lowest point of the swinging path, the total upward force from the chains is 339N and the child's speed is m Note: Speed is always a positive number.
