Question

name the missing force...
a) gravitational force
b) tension force
c) normal force
d) applied force

Explanation:

The rope exerts a pulling force on Tommy which is the tension force. Gravitational force is already shown as \(F_w\). Normal force acts perpendicular to a surface and is not relevant here. Applied force is a general term for an externally - applied push or pull, but in the context of a rope, the specific force is tension.

Answer:

b) tension force
