I'd say we can't tell from the information given in the picture. We don't know what's on the right side of the right pulley.

If the rope that goes under the right pulley goes up the right side of it to, say, another hook in the ceiling, then there are two ropes holding the right pulley and the 40N weight. The tension on each side of the right pulley is 20N, and W is 20N.

But we don't know ... we can't see what happens to the rope when it goes under the right pulley.

You’re right, bc I’m the question it says the pulley is at equilibrium

A book that weighs 19 Newtons sits on a table. With what force

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

We know there's two forces acting on a book while it sits on a table:the force of gravity pulling it down, and the normal force of the table acting upward on the book. The book isn't accelerating while it sits there. That's because the weight of the book is being counteracted by the normal force of the table.

Explanation:

There are two forces acting upon the book. One force - the Earth's gravitational pull - exerts a downward force. The other force - the push of the table on the book (sometimes referred to as a normal force) - pushes upward on the book.

A certain lightning bolt moves 10.0 C of charge. How many charges have been moved if the fundamental unit of charge is 1.6 x 10-

Andrej [43]

To solve this problem, use the ratio given by the total number of electrons or protons that exist as a function of the total charge, and inversely proportional to the value of the fundamental charge. The number of fundamental unit $|q_e|$ that constitutes a charge of 40.0C can be calculated as
