One end of a light string is fixed to the celling and the other end is tied to the wall. A body of mass 500 g is suspended from that string in such a way that the part of the string towards the wall remains horizontal and the portion towards the ceiling makes an angle of 30^(@) with the ceiling. Find the tension on the two parts of the string.
