Question:
In Figure, a chain consisting of five links, each of mass 0.100 kg, is lifted vertically with constant acceleration of magnitude a = 2.50 m/s2. Find the magnitudes of
(a) The force on link 1 from link 2,
(b) The force on link 2 from link 3,
(c) The force on link 3 from link 4, and
(d) The force on link 4 from link 5. Then find the magnitudes of
(e) The force F on the top link from the person lifting the chain and
(f) The net force accelerating each link.

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.
