- An accident victim with a broken leg is being placed in traction. The patient wears a special boot with a pulley attached to the sole. The foot and boot together have a mass of 4.0 kg, and the doctor has decided to hang a m = 6.2 kg mass from the rope. The boot is held suspended by the ropes and does not touch the bed. (Figure 1) Determine the amount of tension in the rope by using Newton’s laws to analyze the hanging mass. Assume that ϕ = 13 ∘ . Hint: If the pulleys are frictionless, which we will assume, the tension in the rope is constant from one end to the other. The net traction force needs to pull straight out on the leg. What is the proper angle θ for the upper rope? What is the net traction force pulling on the leg?arrow_forwardA heavy man’s resting weight is 1029 N. He is standing on a scale on an elevator that has a mass (without the man) of 1250 kg. While the elevator is in motion the man’s apparent weight reads 1134 N.

The left string is horizontal with tension force T2 and and the right string with tension force T1 makes an angle 0 with the horizontal. I1 is measured to be 63 N, and e = 41.0°. What is the mass of the block, in kg? Use g = 10 m/s2. Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.
