Two vertical ropes support a 2.00 meter 500N sign. The sign is uniform so its weight force acts at its center. The left rope exerts an upward tension force , T1, and it acts at the far left edge of the sign. The right tension force, T2, acts 0.57 meters to the left of the far right edge. Solve for the values of the two tension forces
