Part B - Finding the mass of the pulley
As shown, an object with mass $m = 4.7 kg$ is hung from a pulley and spring system. When the object is hung, the tension in the cable is $35.2 N$ and the pulley is $h = 147.2 cm$ below the ceiling.
Because the tensile force is greater than the object's weight, the pulley cannot be massless as assumed. Find the mass of the pulley.
(Figure 2)
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. For this problem, use $g = 9.81 m/s^2$.
