![## Problem Description
Two blocks are connected by a (massless) string that runs over a (massless, frictionless) pulley as shown. Assume there is no friction between block 1 and the surface of the incline.
### Diagram Explanation
- **Block 1**: Positioned on a 40° incline, labeled as "1".
- **Block 2**: Hanging vertically, labeled as "2".
- A massless string connects the two blocks and runs over a pulley at the top of the incline.
### Problem Statement
- **Mass of Block 1 (\(m_1\))**: 3.2 kg
- **Mass of Block 2 (\(m_2\))**: 5.8 kg
**Question**: What is the tension in the string?
Express your answer in newtons (N), to at least one digit after the decimal point.
