Study Notes
- Tension (T) represents the pulling force exerted by objects like strings or cables
- Tension is a scalar quantity
- The unit for tension is measured in Newtons (N)
Understanding Tension
- Tension in a string is the force transmitted through the string to another object, like a block being pulled
Equations Involving Tension
- Newton's Second Law equation: $\sum F = ma$
- Tension in a vertical string supporting an object of mass m: $T = mg$
- g is the acceleration due to gravity, approximately $9.8 m/s^2$
Example Problem
- A 5 kg block suspended from a ceiling by a rope experiences a tension of 49 N in the rope, calculated using T = 5 kg * 9.8 m/s^2
