Question

A wire of mass 9.8×103kg/m passes over a friction-less pulley fixed on the top of an inclined plane which makes an angle of 30o with horizontal. Two masses M1,M2 are attached to the two ends of the wire. M1 is at rest on an inclined plane and M2 is hanging vertically downwards. The system is in equilibrium. If a transverse wave progresses with a velocity of 100 m/s in the wire then the values of M1, M2 are :

Solution

The correct option is C 20 kg,10 kg
Velocity v=Tμ
T=v2μ
104×9.8×103 =98 N
T=M1g sin30
M1=989.8×12=20 kg
M2g=T
M2=10 kg
