Again you complicate this beyond the Introductory level--especially
non-physics majors.
With this group the pulley SIMPLY changes the direction
of the force from vertical to horizontal.
We NEVER complicate things by
determining the 3-dimensional force vectors that accomplish this.
Your
comments and concerns are appropriate to a 2nd course in mechanics, NOT the
intro physics courses for which these labs are designed.
