a rope is strung between two cliffs. A mountain climber weighing 100 kg is halfway across the rope when the rope forms an angle of 45 degrees with the horizontal. The tension in the rope is closest to what value?

2T sin45 = 100*9.8

10N

Help I don’t think it’s 100N I think it’s either 100N or about 700N

Or maybe 1000N

707 N to be exact....closest to 700 N
Ft=500/sin45
