Tension on a rope--no idea how to even start.
A rope is used to pull a 10kg block across the floor with an acceleration of 3m/s^2. If the frictional force on the black is 50 N, what is the tension on the rope?
M=50kg
A= 3m/s^2
Frictional force is 50 N.
F=ma
In truth, I have no idea where to even start with this question. Though I did begin by drawing a free-body diagram, but that got me nowhere.
