A rescue team's equipment sled with a mass of 600 kg rests on a steep, snow-covered mountain slope inclined at an angle of 30° to the horizontal. A steel safety cable anchored to a rock outcrop higher up the mountain runs parallel to the slope and prevents the sled from sliding down. Find the tension in the cable and the force that the slope exerts on the sled. Round answers to a whole number and be sure to include the units. Be sure to put a space between your numerical answer and the unit symbol. Answer: The tension is [tension] and the force exerted by the slope on the sled is [force].
