Problem 1

Exercise 4

An adventurous archaeologist crosses between two rock cliffs by slowly going hand-over-hand along a rope stretched between the cliffs.

He stops to rest at the middle of the rope (Figure 1) . The rope will break if the tension in it exceeds 2.35×104$${\rm N}$$ , and our hero's mass is 92.4$${\rm kg}$$ .
