An acrobat is walking on a tightrope of length L
=20.1 m attached to supports A and B at a
distance of 20.0 m apart. The combined weight
of the acrobat and his balancing pole is 900 N,
and the friction between his shoes and the rope
is large enough to prevent him from slipping.
Neglecting the weight of the rope and any
elastic deformation, determine the deflection (y)
and the tension in portion AC and BC of the
rope for values of x from 0.5 m to 10 m using
0.5 m increments.
1. Determine the maximum deflection (y) in
the rope.
2. Plot tension of AC and BC vs. x (on the
same plot with x on the x-axis). Turn in the
plot and the table of x, TAC, and TBC (clearly
label each).

While in the chamber, the subject is asked to perform a number of normal activities, such as eating, sleeping, and exercising. The rate of heat released from the subject’s body can be measured by the rate of heat gain by the water bath. Would direct calorimetry be a practical way to measure metabolic rate? Why or why not?A person is placed inside a calorimetric chamber for 24 hours. During this time, the 660-gallon water bath heats up by 3.2°F. What is the subject’s metabolic rate during this period?
