Q2/ A former student of mechanics wishes to weigh himself but has access only to a scale
A with capacity limited to 100 lb and a small 20-lb spring dynamometer B. With the rig
shown he discovers that when he exerts a pull on the rope so that B registers 19 lb, the
scale A reads 67 lb. What is his correct weight?
