Tension
•
At any point in the rope (or string
string, cable or chain)
chain), tension is the
pulling force exerted on the rope on one side of the point by the
rope on the other side.
•
At its two ends, tension is the pulling force exerted on the object
attached to its ends by the ropes at the ends.
•
Note that tension can pull but not push.

Tension with “Ideal Cord”
•
•
•
“Ideal cord”: a cord that has zero mass and thus zero weight
In an ideal cord, (a) the tension has the same value at all points
along the cord, and (b) the tension is equal to the force that the
cord exerts on the objects attached to its ends (as long as there is
no external force on the cord).
Note: In many cases, the weight of a cord is negligibly small
compared to the weight of the objects attached to its ends, and
thus we may assume that it is an ideal cord.

Ideal Pulley
•
Pulley: A pulley serves to change the direction of a tension force, and
may also (in the case of multiple-pulley systems) change its
magnitude.

•
“Ideal pulley”: a pulley that has no mass and no friction.
The tension of an “ideal cord” that runs through an “ideal pulley” is the
same on both sides of the pulley (and at all points along the cord)

Example: A Two-Pulley System
What is the tension of the rope?
– FBD for Pulley L
– Equilibrium
Î ΣFy= Tc + Tc – W = 0
Î Tc = W /2 = 902 N
– Since tension is the same at all
points along the cord C, the
person’s pulling force is equal to
Tc.
– Therefore, the person pulling the
rope only needs to exert a force
equal to half the engine’s weight.

change.
