Obtain what the tension in the cable towing the sensor

Reference no: EM13669407

A helicopter flies over the arctic ice pack at a constant altitude, towing an airborne 136 kilogram laser sensor that measures the thickness of the ice. The helicopter and the sensor both move only in the horizontal direction and have a horizontal acceleration of magnitude 2.8 m/s. Neglecting air resistance, obtain the tension in the cable towing the sensor.
