Three light rods from a right angled tri...

Three light rods from a right angled triangle. The tension in the rod PR, if a force of `300N` is applied vertically downward at `R` is.

A

`400N`

B

`200N`

C

`300N`

D

`500N`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Here `(PQ)/(T)=(PR)/(T)=(PQ)/(300)`
`T_(PR)=500N`
