Question

consider this situation: a trapeze artist is swinging from a rope that is attached to the ceiling. of the forces listed, identify which act upon the trapeze artist. tap to select the forces that are present. normal gravity applied friction tension air resistance

Explanation:

• Gravity: Acts on all objects with mass, pulling the trapeze artist towards the Earth.
• Tension: The rope attached to the ceiling exerts a tension force on the trapeze artist, countering the pull of gravity to some extent.
• Air Resistance: As the trapeze artist swings through the air, air molecules exert a resistive force (air resistance) opposing the motion.

Answer:

Gravity, Tension, Air Resistance
