A 4.50 kg block is suspended from the end of a light vertical rope. A time-dependent force is applied to the upper end of the rope, and the box moves upward with a velocity magnitude that varies in time according to v(t)=(2.00m/s2)t+(0.600m/s3)t2. What is the tension of the rope when the velocity of the box is 8.00 m/s?

You are driving directly behind a pickup truck, going at the same speed as the truck. a crate falls from the bed of the truck to the road. (a) will your car hit the crate before the crate hits the road if you neither brake nor swerve?
