OK, try this.  Connect one end of a cable to the floor.  Put a spring
balance 
between the end of the cable and the hook on the floor.  Hang a pulley
from 
the ceiling, also by a spring balance.  Loop the cable over the pulley and

hang a 175# weight on it.  What will the tensiometer read on the cable?
What 
will the 2 scales read?

Answer:  The tensiometer will read 175#.  The scale between the floor and
the 
cable will read 175# and the one on the ceiling will read 350#

QED.

John
