Question:
A man is standing on a platform that is connected to a pulley arrangement, as the drawing shows. By pulling upward on the rope with a force P(vector) the man can raise the platform and himself. The total mass of the man plus the platform is 94.0 kg. What pulling force should the man apply to create an upward acceleration of 1.20 m/s2?

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
