A sign hangs from two wires. The left-hand wire makes an angle of 60° with the horizontal, and themagnitude of the tension in the wire is 362 N. The right-hand wire makes an angle of 45° with thehorizontal.Calculate the mass of the sign, in kilograms, to two significant figures.(Take the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity, g, to be 9.8m s-2.)The mass of the sign iskg (to 2 s.f.)
