1.	Two masses 2 kg and 4 kg are tied at the ends of a massless string and which is passing over a frictionless pulley. The tension in the string is
Answer» 3.68 N 78.4N 26N 13.26 N Solution :Tension in the string `T = (2m_1 m_2)/((m_1 + m_2) ) G ` `T = (2 xx 2 xx 4)/(2 +4) xx 9.8 = 16/6 xx 9.8 = 26.13 N`
