Q134 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2022 (08 Jul Shift 2) · Physics

In the case of a wire, having negligible mass suspended from ceiling and stretched under the action of a weight $F$ suspended from its other end, the tension at any cross-section of the wire is

  • A
    Zero
  • B
    $2 F$
  • C
    $0.5 F$
  • Correct answer
    D
    $F$

Solution

As wire is massless, tension at every section of wire is $F$. Figure

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