A uniform rod of mass m and length L is suspended with two massless strings as shown in the figure. If the rod is at rest in a horizontal position the ratio of tension in the two strings T 1 /T 2 is:

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
t A = 0

T 1 ×
– mg
= 0 ....
T 1 = 
T 1 + T 2 = mg ....
T 2 =
