A 3.25 m long (L) steel pipe has a mass of 625 kg and is lifted by a crane attached to cable CD. Point C is attached to each end of the pipe at A and B of the steel pipe. The length AC is 2.85 m and the length BC is also 2.85 m (i.e., length AC BC). Using g = 9.81 m/s2, calculate the tension in sling AC and give your answer in newtons (N) to the nearest newton.
