A mass M in held in place by the applied force F and the pulley system shown below. The pulleys are massless and frictionless. Determine the tension in each section in each section of rope and the applied force F
Taking upwards as positve
-T1 - F = 0
T4 - T1 - T3 = 0
T2 + T3 - T5 = 0
T5 - Mg = 0
Now this is where I confused about the tension
To me, I think T1 = T2 = T3
but again, am not sure, can anyone tell me if it was right or wrong ? so I can go on with my problem. Thank you
