As shown in the figure, two strings of length $l$ each are attached with a vertical axis $AB$ of length $l$. Strings are $AC$ and $BC$. At point $C$ a point mass m is attached. Mass rotates about axis with angular velocity. Tensions in $AB$ and $BC$ are $T_1$ and $T_2$ respectively. Choose the $CORRECT$ alternative :-

822-644

  • A

    $T_1 = T_2$

  • B

    string $AC$ will remain taut only if $\omega \geq \sqrt{2g/l}$

  • C

    string $BC$ will remain taut for any value of $\omega$.

  • D

    $T_1 -T_2 = 2mg$
