    hmmm ... no, m increase as length increase

    Maximum length of chain pulled by constant force

    Since F=ma , if the force is constant and it is as stated in the problem, then there is constant acceleration and therefore changing velocity according to a=dv/dt

    Maximum length of chain pulled by constant force

    the height of a point at the tip of the chain off the ground is the length of the chain, the force is constant velocity will keep increasing yes

    Maximum length of chain pulled by constant force

    in this case y is the length, the question stated that initially it was at elevation of 0 so length will be 0, y max is the maximum length the chain will reach up the ground ... here is where my confusion start, I am not sure if the chain will stop going up at any point, so from this i...

    Maximum length of chain pulled by constant force

    Vf=Vi+at since Vi=0 >>> Vf=at ? or v=ds/dt KEi + PEi + Wext = KEf + PEf initially it was at rest v=0 and height was 0 that gives us Wext = KEf + PEf => W = 0.5mv^2+mghi don't have enough knowns to use this ...

    Maximum length of chain pulled by constant force

    Hey good people, I am new here and i found that you help people, i hope you can help me with this ive been triyng to solve this for a while but with no luck 1. Homework Statement A chain of mass m0 per unit length is loosely coiled on the floor. If one of the end is subjected to a constant...
