What happens when the tension is 60N? When the tension is 60N the upward tension is so great that it will lift the object off the ground. Use your results so far regarding a block being pulled by a tension force and the free body diagram below to derive an expression (in terms of m, g, and ) for the tension force required to lift the block into the air.

Expert Solution
Step 1: Introduction

Free Body Diagram is a diagram drawn to represent all the forces that are acting on a body. The forces of gravity always act downwards i.e. they pull the object towards the ground. 

Tension force is the force acting due to a flexible medium like cable or string.

Newton's second law gives us the net force acting on a body is equal to mass times acceleration. If a body is in equilibrium the net force acting on it is zero and hence object is not accelerated.
