$A$ hollow sphere of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is immersed in a tank of water (density $\rho_w$). The sphere would float if it were set free. The sphere is tied to the bottom of the tank by two wires which make an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal as shown in the figure. The tension $T_1$ in each wire is:
