Chapter 4, Problem 12SP
An essentially weightless pulley that is effectively without friction is attached to a ceiling hook. A very lightweight rope is passed over the pulley and hangs down on both sides. A 200.0-N load is then hung from each end of the rope. What is the value of the tension in the rope? Determine the net downward force on the hook.
