Chain Dynamics: Solving for Maximum Length
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- tokkii

Chain Dynamics: Solving for Maximum Length
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- tokkii

Chain Dynamics: Solving for Maximum Length
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...- tokkii

Chain Dynamics: Solving for Maximum Length
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 ...- tokkii
