The practice of slowly and gently pushing on a fractured or dislocated body part is known as traction. Often, ropes, pulleys, and weights are used for it. Consider a traction setup as shown in the figure. Assuming the pulleys are frictionless calculate the tension force in the rope that supports the leg.
