Two persons are pulling, the ends of a strong in such a way so that the string is stretched horizontally. When a weight of ` 10 kg ` is suspended in the middle of the string. The string does not remanin horizontal. Can the persons maken it horizontal again by pulling it with a greater force ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

No, because the vetical weight suspended cannot be balanced by horizonatl forces howsoever large these may be. [Refer to Concepetual Problem 21] .
