JEE Main 29 June 2022, Shift 1, Physics Q36

Question 36 of 90 in this shift, Physics question 6 of 30, Section A.

A wire of length L is hanging from a fixed support. The length changes to

L_1

and

L_2

when masses 1 kg and 2 kg are suspended respectively from its free end. Then the value of L is equal to :

(1) $\sqrt{L_1L_2}$
(2) $\frac{L_1 + L_2}{2}$
(3) $2L_1 - L_2$ Official answer
(4) $3L_1 - 2L_2$
