\includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{4c8f0d10-ea1e-4aee-870d-71a52dd948ed-02_508_501_274_822} A light inextensible string has its ends attached to two fixed points \(A\) and \(B\). The point \(A\) is vertically above \(B\). A smooth ring \(R\) of mass \(m \mathrm {~kg}\) is threaded on the string and is pulled by a force of magnitude 1.6 N acting upwards at \(45 ^ { \circ }\) to the horizontal. The section \(A R\) of the string makes an angle of \(30 ^ { \circ }\) with the downward vertical and the section \(B R\) is horizontal (see diagram). The ring is in equilibrium with the string taut.

1. Give a reason why the tension in the part \(A R\) of the string is the same as that in the part \(B R\).
2. Show that the tension in the string is 0.754 N , correct to 3 significant figures.
3. Find the value of \(m\).
