APPLYING NEWTON’S LAWS 5.1. 5 IDENTIFY: a = 0 for each object. Apply ΣFy = ma y to each weight and to the pulley. SET UP: Take + y upward. The pulley has negligible mass. Let Tr be the tension in the rope and let Tc be the tension in the chain. EXECUTE: (a) The free-body diagram for each weight is the same and is given in Figure 5.1a. ΣFy = ma y gives Tr = w = 25.0 N. (b) The free-body diagram for the pulley is given in Figure 5.1b. Tc = 2Tr = 50.0 N. EVALUATE: The tension is the

Activation of the diaphragm and the external intercostal muscles begins the inspiratory process. What effect does contraction of these muscles have on thoracic volume‚ and how is this accomplished? ↑ thoracic volume. The diaphragm moves inferiorly‚ increasing the superior/inferior dimension; the ribs swing up and out‚ increasing
