Answer:

Option D) 1.26 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

[tex]d=\frac{10w}{\pi}[/tex]

where

d is the diameter of a rope in inches

w is the weight in tons

we have

[tex]d=2(2)=4\ in[/tex] ----> the diameter is two times the radius

substitute the value of d and solve for w

[tex]4=\frac{10w}{\pi}[/tex]

[tex]w=\frac{4\pi}{10}=0.4\pi\ tons[/tex]

assume

[tex]\pi =3.14[/tex]

[tex]0.4(3.14)=1.26\ tons[/tex]
