riiiight...if tensions were unequal, then the mass would rotate around it's center of mass...thanks:)

While doing some "what is the tension in cable" of hanging masses problems, I thought of the following scenario: a mass, uniform in density, is suspended by two cables of unequal length (See attachment) Assuming that the mass is uniform in density, would T1 be the same as T2? Intuitively, it...
