How much tension in the wire does the bird produce

Reference no: EM13710618

Problem: The distance between two telephone poles is 31 m. When a 1.25 kg bird lands on the telephone wire midway between the poles, the wire sags 0.116 m. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².

Part A: How much tension in the wire does the bird produce?

Answer in units of N

I need help to find how much tension in the wire does the bird produce and ignore the weight of the wire.
