I the belt looks good, use some belt dressing and start car again. if squeal stops, belt is loose, so replace tensioner. If it still squeals, could be a bearing on any pulley, then you will have to isolate with a mechanic stethoscope or try wd40 on each one by one. If it improves, you found the culprit.

How does the tension in a pulley system affect the physics of the pulley's operation?

The tension in a pulley system affects how the pulley operates by determining the amount of force needed to lift an object. Higher tension in the system requires more force to lift the object, while lower tension requires less force. This relationship between tension and force is a key factor in understanding the physics of pulley systems.
