To solve the question, we need to analyze the situation of the man carrying a load and what happens when he jumps from the roof of a building. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Weight of the Man and the Load**: - Let the weight of the man be \( W \). - The load he is carrying is equal to half of his weight, which is \( \frac{W}{2} \). - Therefore, the total weight he is carrying (man + load) is \( W + \frac{W}{2} = \frac{3W}{2} \). ...
