The resultant torque produced in the system as shown in the figure
Correct answer: A. Mgr + mgr
- A. Mgr + mgr
- B. Mgr - mgr
- C. 2gr(M+m)
- D. 2gr(M-m)
Explanation
Mg is applied in downwards direction and mg is applied upward, but the torque they create is in the same direction, so total torque is sum of two torques.

About Waves
Progressive waves transfer energy through oscillations, with wavelength, frequency, amplitude and wave speed related by v = fλ; sound speed depends on the medium. Superposition produces interference and stationary waves in strings and organ pipes, while simple harmonic motion describes the oscillation itself and must be distinguished from wave propagation.
