    Answer:

    The tension in the light rope must be equal to the weight of the bucket

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Constant velocity of bucket and direction of bucket in downward

    We need to find the tension in the rope

    Using given data,

    When a bucket  moves downward with a constant velocity then the net force does not applied on the bucket.

    So, The weight of the bucket will be equal to the tension in the light rope

    In mathematically,

    T=mg

    Where, T = tension

    m = mass of bucket

    g = acceleration due to gravity

    Hence, The tension in the light rope must be equal to the weight of the bucket.
