It is late and Carlos is sliding down a rope from his third-floor window to meet his friend Juan. As he slides down the rope faster and faster, he becomes frightened and grabs harder on the rope, increasing the tension in the rope. As soon as the upward tension in the rope becomes equal to his weight:

It would help Carlos stop sliding down and he would stay in his place in the air.

Explanation:

According to Newton's 1st Law of Motion, a body is said to be at rest or uniform motion when no net force is acting on it. This explains that when the tension in the rope becomes equal to Carlos' weight, the net force becomes zero which means the body (Carlos), is at rest and remains in the air instead of sliding down the rope.

increasing transnational kinetic energy. because the transnational kinetic energy formula consists of only two variables, mass and velocity, increasing one of those properties is the only way to increase an object's transnational kinetic energy. increases to mass and velocity, however, do not have the same impact.
