Answer: 2.07N

Step-by-step explanation:

∑Fy=4N

∑Fx=0N

The total Tension force on either side must be equal, therefore, Ty+Ty=4N.

Since we are only concerned with the forces in the y direction we will use the sine function.

Ty=Tsinθ

Ty+Ty=2Ty=4N

2Ty=2Tsinθ=4N

Then solve for T, 2Tsinθ=4 ⇒ T= 4/(2sinθ) ⇒ 2.07N
