1) The document instructs the reader to draw a force diagram of an object suspended by two spring scales, using four steps: center of mass, long term forces, contact forces, and labeled axes. 2) The force diagram shows two tension forces (T1 and T2) acting at angles, with T1 measured at 1N. 3) Calculations show that T2 must also be 1N in the x-direction and 4.69N in the y-direction, in order for the object to be in translational equilibrium.
