A 12 kg object is hanging at rest from a rope. What is the tension in the rope if the object is in equilibrium (take g = 10 m/s2)?
To find the tension in the rope when a 12 kg object is hanging at rest, we can analyze the forces acting on the object.
1. Weight of the Object: The weight of the object can be calculated using the formula:
where:
(mass of the object)
(acceleration due to gravity)
