3. A 3 m long, 250 N, uniform rod at the zoo is held in a horizontal position by two ropes at its ends. The left rope makes an angle of 150° with the rod and the right rope makes an angle 0 with the horizontal. A 80 N howler monkey hangs motionless 0.50 m from the right end of the rod as he carefully studies you. Calculate the tension in the rope at the right end of the rod. 0.50 m Tempa 150° -2.50 m
