A light string of `70cm` has its two ends tied at the same level `50cm` apart. A force of `100N` is applied at a distance of `30cm` from `P` . The tension in part PR is.

A

`18N`

B

`8N`

C

`0N`

D

`80N`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Here `T_(1)cos(90-theta)`+`T_(2)costheta=100`
And `T_(1)costheta=T_(2)cos(90-theta)`
Solving, `T_(1)=80N`
