JEE Main Physics question
Length of an elastic string is metre when the longitudinal tension is 3 N. Length of the string is metre when the tension is 5 N. If the length of the string is found to be , calculate the tension in the string in N.
Answer: 8
Solution
Since the string obeys Hooke's law, length for some constants . Using the two data points: . Solving for the
