3. In the diagram below, a rock climber has attached himself to a large rock in an effort to rappel, that is, make a controlled descent off this cliff's vertical drop. The surface that the rock is resting on is frictionless. Draw two free body diagrams; one for the climber and one for the rock. Look at your free body diagrams and decide (based on your drawings only) if the climber accelerates downwards or descends with a constant speed. No other calculations are required for this problem.
