The winch takes in cable at the constant rate of 130 mm/s. if the cylinder mass is 115 kg, determine the tension in cable 1. neglect all friction.

By applying Newton's second law of motion;

ma = mg - T

Where,
m = mass; a = downward accelerations (+ve value) or upward acceleration (-ve value); g = gravitational acceleration; T = tension.

For the current case, the velocity is constant therefore,
a = 0

Then,
0 = mg - T
T = mg = 115*9.81 = 1128.15 N

Tension in the cable is 1128.15 N.

The answer is orbit around nucleus
