Q134 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2025 (21 MAY SHIFT 1) · Physics

As shown in the figure, a light uniform rod PQ of length 150 cm is suspended from the ceiling horizontally using two metal wires $A$ and $B$ tied to the ends of the rod. The ratios of the radii and the Young's moduli of the materials of the two wires $A$ and $B$ are respectively $2: 3$ and $3: 2$. The position at which a weight should be suspended from the rod such that the elongations of the two wires become equal is Figure

  • Correct answer
    A
    90 cm from P
  • B
    100 cm from P
  • C
    40 cm from Q
  • D
    45 cm from Q

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
