27) I caught me a big shark, one having a mass of 650 kg. It is held up by a strong pole (solid black in the figure) that makes an angle of 55.0° with the horizontal and an attached cable (light brown in the figure) at its end. The pole is uniform in construction, 4.00 m long, and has a mass of 50.0 kg. The cable makes an angle of 35.0° with the horizontal. Determine the tension in the cable, and the x and y components of the force exerted at the base of the pole. Start off by drawing the Tension T on the cable and the x and y- forces at the base of the pole. 35° 55°
