Given that the cargo is stationary, the tension in the steel cable will be equal to the weight of the cargo.
Therefore, the tension in Condition A is equal to the weight (W) of the cargo.
Given DIAGRAM 1.1 where FT means Tension and W means Weight, calculate the tension on the steel cable given the following conditions:
A. The cargo is stationary.
B. The cargo accelerates upward at a rate of 0.25 m/(s^2)
What is the tension in Condition A?
