It is given that,
Mass of the object, 
Diameter of the nylon cord, 
Height of each pole, 
Length between the two poles, 
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
The cord will break when the tension in the cord (due to the weight of the object) exceeds the tensile strength of the cord.
Therefore, the maximum tension possible in the cord is 
where,
= the tensile strength of nylon is
