A wire elongates by 1.0 mm when a load W is hanged from it. If this wire goes over a pulley and two weights W each are hung at the two ends the elongation of the wire will be

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
1


The tension is the wire will be same in both the cases. Hence elongation will be same i.e., 1mm.
