Question

A block of volume 600 × 10-6 m3 is held by a string at rest in honey as shown. ρblock = 7401 kg/m3, ρhoney = 1400 kg/m3, and g = 10.0 m/s2. What is the magnitude of the tension force on the block, in Newtons? 

Your answer needs to have 3 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. (No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.)
