Answer:

T = 570 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The gravitational force acting on a bucket of water = 525 N

Net force in the Y direction is 45 N

We need to find the magnitude of the force of tension. It can be calculated as :

45 = T - 525

T = 525 + 45

T = 570 N

Hence, the force of tension is 570 N.
