Reparing Santa's Sleigh

Level pending

To repair Santa's sleigh, his elves must hang his sleigh on a rope from a ceiling. This rope must be strong enough to sustain the sleigh so it wouldn't move while it is being repaired. Assuming that the elves only use one rope and that the sleigh has a mass of 100 kilograms, calculate the tension of the rope in Newtons.


The answer is 980.
