A uniform rod of length l and mass m is ...

A uniform rod of length `l` and mass `m` is hung from, strings of equal length from a ceiling as shown in figure. Determine the tensions in the strings?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts


`T_(A)+T_(B)=mg` ………i
`T_(A)l/2=T_(B)l/4 implies 2T_(A)=T_(B)`…….ii
from eqn i and ii
`T_(A)=(mg)/3, T_(B)=(2mg)/3`
