A uniform steel beam (mass 43.7 kg, length 9.79 m) is hinged at one end to a wall and has two wires attached at the other end. Wire 1 (length 4.67 m) is horizontal and is attached to the wall, and wire 2 is vertical and is attached to the floor If the system is in equilibrium and the tension in wire 2 is 130 N, find the magnitude of the tension in wire 1, in N.
