Rutherford's experiment<span> utilized positively charged alpha particles (He with a +2 charge) which were deflected by the dense inner mass (nucleus). The conclusion that could be formed from this result was that </span>atoms<span> had an inner core which contained most of the mass of an </span>atom<span> and was positively charged.</span>

If this isn't on the list of choices, that's tough. We can't help you choose the best one if we don't know what any of them is.
There are two torques t1 and t2 on the beam due to the weights, one torque t3 due to the weight of the beam, and one torque t4 due to the string.
You need to figure out t4 to know the tension in the string.
Since the whole thing is not moving t1 + t2 + t3 = t4.
torque t = r * F * sinФ = distance from axis of rotation * force * sin (∡ between r and F)
t1 =3.2 * 44g
t2 = 7 * 49g
t3 = 3.5 * 24g
t4 = t1 + t2 + t3 = 5570,118
The t4 also is given by:
t4 = r * T * sin Ф
r = 7
Ф = 32°
T: tension in the string
T = t4 / (r * sinФ)
T = t4 / (7 * sin(32°))
T = 1501,6 N
D. It happens all the time
