Tension

A force working along the length of a medium, especially if this force is carried by a flexible medium like cable or rope is called tension.  The flexible cords which bear muscle forces to other parts of the body are called tendons.

Net force = 𝐹𝑛𝑒𝑡 = 𝑇−𝑊=0,

where,

T and W are the magnitudes of the tension and weight and their signs indicate a direction, be up-front positive here.
