The tension in the cord is 14.7 N and the force of pull of the cord is 14.7 N, assuming the block is stationary.
<h3>
What is the tension in the cord?</h3>
The tension in the cord is calculated as follows;
T = ma + mg
where;
- a is the acceleration of the block
- g is acceleration due to gravity
- m is mass of the block
T = m(a + g)
T = 1.5(a + 9.8)
T = 1.5a + 14.7
Thus, the tension in the cord is (1.5a + 14.7) N.
If the block is at rest, the tension is 14.7 N.
<h3>Force of the force</h3>
The force with which the cord pulls is equal to the tension in the cord
F = T = m(a + g)
F = (1.5a + 14.7) N
If the block is stationary, a = 0, the tension and force of pull of the cord = 14.7 N.
Thus, the tension in the cord is 14.7 N and the force of pull of the cord is 14.7 N, assuming the block is stationary.
