Two light strings of length `4cm` and `3 cm` are tied to a bob of weight `500 gm`.The free ends of the strings are tied to pegs in the same horizontal line and separated by `5 cm`.The ratio of tension in the longer string to that in the shortest string is

A

`4:3`

B

`3:4`

C

`4:5`

D

`5:4`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`T_(1)/(sin (90+theta_(1)))=T_(2)/(sin (90+theta)`
