Problem 4 Pulleys are a tool that can change the direction of a tension force without changing its magnitude. A worker has decided to lift a 153kg piano using the aid of a pulley. He has two options: 1) a single pulley or 2) a double-pulley. In both cases he will lower the piano with an acceleration of g/8 downward (that is, 1/8th the acceleration due to gravity). You're going to analyze both situations to determine which is better. Option 1: Single Pulley (left) (a) (b) a. Draw a FBD for the piano. b. Write Newton's 2nd law for the piano. C. Solve for the tension force in the rope. 1313 N Option 2: Double Pulley (right) – this redirects the tension force twice. In drawing your FBD, you may act as if the pulley were part of the piano. а. Draw a FBD for the piano. Check with your instructor before proceeding. b. Write Newton's 2nd law for the piano. c. Solve for the tension force in the rope. 656.3 N

Which of the following statements are true? Select all correct. Question 4 options: An ideal pulley is frictionless. In a static-pulley system, the net force on individual pulleys may be non-zero. If a rope passes around many ideal pulleys, the tension may be different at either end of the rope. Using pulleys, it is possible to lift a box of weight mg using a tension T < mg If there is more than one rope in a pulley system, then each rope may have a different tension. If a rope passes over an ideal pulley, the tension is larger on one side than the other.
