A weight can be hung in any of following four ways by using same string. In which case is the string more likely to break is :-

A

$A$

B

$B$

C

$C$

D

$D$

Solution

$2 \mathrm{T} \cos \theta=\mathrm{mg} ; \mathrm{T}=\frac{\mathrm{mg}}{2 \cos \theta}$

$\cos \theta$ less or $\theta$ more tension more
