A newly planted tree is supported against the wind by a rope tiedto a stake in the ground, as shown in the figure below. The forceof the wind, though distributed over the tree, is equivalent to asingle force F, asshown in the figure. Find the tension in the rope. Assume thatneither the tree's weight nor the force of the ground on the tree'sroots produces any significant torque about point O.(Let F = 121 N, D = 2.02 mand d = 1.14 m.)
