A rope placed straight on a frictionless floor is pulled longtudinally by a force F. Tension force `7^(@)` developed in the rope at a point varies with distance x of the point from the rear end as shown in the graph. What can you certainly conclude about density of the rope?

A

It is uniform.

B

It decreases with distance x from the rear end.

C

It increases with distance x from the rear end.

D

It is maximum in the middle and decreases towards the ends.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
As initially, tension force 'T' increases rapidly so density of the rope is more near the rear end.
