4-1.Newton's Laws of Motion
normal
Objects $A$ and $B$ each of mass $m$ are connected by light inextensible cord. They are constrained to move on a frictionless ring in a vertical plane as shown in figure. The objects are released from rest at the positions shown. The tension in the cord just after release will be

A
$\frac{ mg }{\sqrt{2}}$
B
$mg \sqrt{2}$
C
$\frac{ mg }{2}$
D
$\frac{ mg }{4}$
Solution

Force along the rod is same
$=m g \cos 45^{\circ}=\frac{ mg }{\sqrt{2}}$
