A horizontal uniform meter stick that weighs 21 N is suspended horizontally by two vertical cables at each end. Cable A attached to the 0.0 m mark can support a maximum tension of 54 N without breaking, and cable B attached to the 1.0 m mark can support up to 79 N. You want to place a small weight on this meter stick. Find the position (in m) on the meter stick at which you can put the heaviest weight without breaking either cable.
