You encounter a strange cosmic string in outer space. The string extends along the x axis from x = 0 m to x = 4.6 x 104 m. You are located at x = -5.4 x 104 m. You experience a gravitational field equal to 9.6 x 10-6 N/kg at this location. Assuming the string has a constant linear mass density, calculate this linear mass density, in units of 105kg/m
