A sculptor has hung up a 45.0 kg horizontal rod of length 4.85 m . One end of the rod is supported by a pivot, and the other end is held up by a wire. The wire makse a 30.0 ∘ angle with the rod.
If tension greater than 1450 N would snap the wire, what is the maximum distance from the pivot that a 68.0 kg person can sit on the rod?
r=________m
