Default Figuring loads / block & tackle theory

om...

My confustion is trying to understand how, in the first experiment we
have 22lbs left, 22 lbs top and 22 (approx) right. Somehow it looks
like 22 lbs are magically appearing on the right. No, the strain on
the hook is not 44 lbs altho it would be if I were to han 22 lbs on
the right to balance the load.

I think you need a differantc scale! The accuracy of the one you have is
very questionable!!
