The tension in the cable is given by the newton's first law will be 163.622 N.

<h3>What is newton's first law?</h3>

The summation of the force is equal to zero.

The formula is given as

ΣF = 0

Where m is the mass of the body and a is the acceleration.

A 210-N mass is suspended from a horizontal beam by two cables that make angles of 29 degrees and 53 degrees with the beam.

Then the tension in the cable will be

Let T be the tension in the cable.

T sin 29° + T sin 53° – 210 = 0

On simplifying, we have

T (sin 29° + sin 53°) = 210

T = 163.622 N
