NEET Physics Equilibrium of Forces MCQ Question
In a free-body diagram of a point P under equilibrium, tensions T1 and T2 act along with a horizontal force. If T1 cos θ = T2 = 60 N and T1 sin θ = 50 N, what is the angle θ between T1 and the horizontal axis?
tan⁻¹(5/6)
tan⁻¹(6/5)
cos⁻¹(5/6)
sin⁻¹(6/5)
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Using T1 sin θ = 50 N and T1 cos θ = 60 N, tan θ = (50/60) = 5/6. Therefore, θ = tan⁻¹(5/6), based on equilibrium conditions.
