To solve the problem of finding the elongation of the nylon rope and the corresponding change in its diameter when a monkey weighing 100 N jumps and catches the free end, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the Cross-Sectional Area of the Rope The diameter of the rope is given as 6 mm. First, we need to convert this to meters: \[ \text{Diameter} = 6 \text{ mm} = 0.006 \text{ m} \] The radius \( r \) is half of the diameter: ...
