Homework Statement
A 35 kg mass is being raised by a cable with decreasing speed. At the instant the upward velocity has a magnitude of 1.6 m/s and the downward acceleration has magnitude of 1.2 m/s2, what is the tension of the cable?
m=35 kg
v=1.6 m/s
a= -1.2 m/s2
g= 9.81 m/s2
Homework Equations
T=mg+ma
The Attempt at a Solution
My professor may be the worst on the planet and hasn't taught us this, I also cannot find any help in the book or online. I do not know how to input velocity into the tension equation. Please Help Thanks...
