A uniform rod is suspended by means of two strings of length 0.10 m and 0.06 m attached to its two ends. The other two ends of the strings are tied to a nail. If tension in the first string is 30N,find the tension in the other.

Answer»

draw the FREE body diagram . let the MASS of the rod be m . And there are twon tension forces ACTING on it . Now tension in one string is 30 N and second string is T1 (suppose) . now , we get ,

30N + T1 - mg = 0 ( body is at REST)(equilibrium)

solving this you get T1 = (mg-30 ) N .

hope it helped .
