Answer :
Final answer:
The maximum force that can be applied to the 2 kg block is 19.6 N.
Explanation:
To find the maximum value of force, first we need to find the tension in the rope. Given that the rope can tolerate a maximum tension of 80 N, we can use Newton's second law to calculate the tension:
Tension = Mass * Acceleration
Since the mass of the rope is 2 kg and the acceleration is 9.8 m/s² (due to gravity), the tension in the rope is:
Tension = 2 kg * 9.8 m/s² = 19.6 N
The maximum force that can be applied to the 2 kg block is equal to the tension in the rope:
Maximum force = 19.6 N
