Answer:
force (tension) of 29.4 N (upward) in 100 cm
force (tension) of 58.4 N (upward) in 200 cm
Explanation:
Given:
Length of tube = 5 m (500 cm)
Mass of tube = 9
Suspended vertically from 150 cm and 50 cm.
Computation:
Force = Mass × gravity acceleration.
Force = 9.8 x 9
Force = 88.2 N
So,
Upward forces = Downward forces
D1 = 150 - 50 = 100 cm
D2 = 150 + 50 = 200 cm
And F1 = F2
F1 x D1 = F2 x D2
F1 x 100 = F2 x 200
F = 2F
Total force = Upward forces + Downward forces
3F = 88.2
F = 29.4 and 2F = 58.8 N
force (tension) of 29.4 N (upward) in 100 cm
force (tension) of 58.4 N (upward) in 200 cm
