A statue with a mass of 230 kg is being lifted by a crane attached to a building. At the time shown in the picture above, the statue is moving upwards with a speed of 1.10 m/s and slowing down (the speed is getting smaller) at a rate of 0.37 m/s2. What is the tension in the cable lifting the statue?

Give your answer in N to three significant figures. Assume the rope and pulley are ideal and the gravitational constant is g = 9.81 m/s2.
