Create a FBD for segment 2 that is attached to the lower end of the cord. Assume, for the moment, that the weight is in equilibrium. 

Given: 

    • Enumerate the segments as i=1,⋯,N from the lower to the upper end.

 

    • Let T0 be the tension at the lower end of the cord.

 

    • Let Ti be the tension at the upper end of segment i.

 

    • Let Fg,M be the weight of the mass on the end of the cord.

 

  • Let Fg,i be the weight of segment i of the cord.
