Two masses \(m\) and \(\frac{m}{2}\) are connected at the two ends of a massless rigid rod of length \(l\). The rod is suspended by a thin wire of torsional constant \(k\) at the centre of mass of the rodmass system (see figure). Because of torsional constant \(k\), the restoring torque is \(\tau  = k\,\theta \) for angular displacement \(\theta \). If the rod is rotated by \(\theta _0\) and released, the tension in it when it passes through its mean position will be

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{{k\,\theta _0^2}}{l}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\omega \)\( = \sqrt {\frac{K}{I}} \,\,\,;\,\,\,\omega  = {\theta _0} \times \Omega \)

\(T = m{\omega ^2}\frac{\ell }{3}\)

\(T = m{\omega ^2}\frac{\ell }{3}{\theta _0}\frac{k}{I}\)   where \(\,l = m\frac{{{\ell ^2}}}{3}\)

\(\,\,\,\,\, = \frac{{\theta _0^2k}}{\ell }\)
