A weight Mg is suspended from the middle of a rope whose ends are at the same level. The rope is no longer horizontal. The minimum tension required to completely straighten the rope is ????(1) Mg/2 ......(2) Mgcos (theta).......(3) 2Mgcos ( theta) ....(4) Infinitely large......

i misssssss u soooooooo much :P

Draw horizontal and vertical components of Tension.

You will see that Vertical components T sin(Q) + T sin(Q) will balance the weight Mg

Mg = 2T sin(Q)

T = Mg / 2 sin(Q)

--

In order to straighten the rope, theta must be 0

T = Mg / 2 sin(0) = Mg/0 = infinite

Comon! hang a weight in the middle of a thread and try to straighten it, you won't be able to straighten it. It will always bend a little at the mid point.

Sir plz give a diagram of it

T=mg/2cosΦ T=mg/2cos90° T=mg/0 T=infinity
