Based on the length of the Ethernet cable and the mass, the tension in the cable can be found to be 80 N.

<h3>How much tension is in the cable?</h3>

The tension in the cable can be found as:

= 4 x mass x length x frequency

Solving for the frequency is:

= 1 / (0.800 / 4)

= 1 / 0.20

= 5.0 Hz

The tension is therefore:

= 4 x 0.20 x 4.00 x 5

= 80N
