A cable PQ of length $25$ m is supported at two ends at the same level as shown in the figure. The horizontal distance between the supports is $20$ m. A point load of $150$ kN is applied at point R which divides into two equal parts. Neglecting the self-weight of the cable, the tension (in kN, in integer value) in the cable due to the applied load will be _______
