Problem 1. If the 5-kg block is suspended from the pulley B and the sag of the cord is d = 0.15 m,
determine the force in cord ABC. 1 Neglect the size of the pulley.

Problem 2. A crate weighing 600 N is supported by two different rope and pulley arrangements as shown.
Determine for each arrangement the tension T in the rope.
Problem 3. Calculate the tension T in the cable which supports the 500-kg mass with the pulley arrangement
shown. Each pulley is free to rotate about its bearing, and the weights of all parts are small
compared with the load. Find the magnitude of the total force on the bearing of pulley C.
