Answer all questions.

1. If the pulleys are frictionless, find the force that must

be hold up by the man. His weight is 60 kg. The
gravity g= 10 m/s2

Answer :

First Step : Free Body diagram of each

Fy = 0 Fy = 0
5
T1 = W T1 = 2 T2

W = m.g T2 = T1/2

= 60.10 N 5 T2 = 600/2 N

W = 600 N So, T2 = 300 N 5

So, T1 = 600
5
 The force holding by the man is T2

So, the force that must be hold by

the man is 300 N 5
