Assuming wire has negligible mass

Reference no: EM13657184

Two telephone poles are separated by 40 m and connected by a wire. A bird of mass 0.50kg lands on the wire midway among the poles, causing the wire to sag 2.0 m below horizontal. Assuming the wire has negligible mass, what is the tension in the wire?
