Consider the 667 N weight held by two cables

shown below. The left-hand cable had tension
T2 and makes an angle of θ2 with the ceiling.
The right-hand cable had tension 540 N and
makes an angle of 55◦ with the ceiling.
The right-hand cable makes an angle of 55◦
with the ceiling and has a tension of 540 N.

a) What is the tension T2 in the left-hand cable slanted at an angle of θ2 with respect to the wall? Answer in units of N.

b) What is the angle θ2 which the left-hand cable makes with respect to the ceiling?
