Free body diagram:

The free body equation is given as,

[tex]T-mg=ma[/tex]

Therefore, tension in the rope T is given as,

[tex]T=m(g+a)[/tex]

Subsriruring all known values,

[tex]\begin{gathered} T=32.5\times(9.81+5.21) \\ =488.15\text{ N} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the tension in the rope is 488.15 N. Hence, option (b); 488 N is the best choice.
