Homework Statement
a block 20% moe massive than yo uhangs from a rope. the other end of hte rpe goes over a massless frictionless pulley and dangles freely, with what acceleration must you climb th rope to keep the block from falling.
Homework Equations
possible w = mg
f = ma
p = mv
The Attempt at a Solution
mass of the body = 1 kg (easy to work with)
mass of block = 1.2 kg
the block falls w/ -g
if i want to keep the block from falling i haev to counter the block falling at
g * mass of block = 11.76 m/s^2 * kg
i feel like the answer is wrong because of units...
