6.System of Particles and Rotational Motion
hard
Shown in the figure is rigid and uniform one meter long rod $AB$ held in horizontal position by two strings tied to its ends and attached to the ceiling. The rod is of mass $'m'$ and has another weight of mass $2m$ hung at a distance of $75\, cm$ from $A$. The tension in the string at $A$ is$....mg$

A
$2$
B
$0.5$
C
$0.75$
D
$1$
(JEE MAIN-2020)
Solution

$\tau_{ B }=0$ (torque about point $B$ is zero $)$
$\left(T_{A}\right) \times 100-(m g) \times 50-(2 m g) \times 25=0$
$100 T _{ A }=100 mg$
$T_{A}=1 mg$
