The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
The problem figure is a square crossed by many straight lines. The answer figures are small outlines, and the correct one must appear as a closed region (without rotation or scaling) formed by some of these lines.
Take the lines in the middle of the square: a nearly horizontal line rising slightly to the right, a nearly vertical line, a lower line rising to the right at about half the slope, and a steep line rising to the right. They enclose a four-sided region with a short, almost horizontal top side, an almost vertical right side, a long bottom side slanting down towards the left and a steep left side.
This is exactly the outline of the first answer figure. Options (2) and (4) are five-sided figures, which this tangle of lines does not contain in that orientation, and option (3) is a much longer, narrower four-sided shape whose slanting sides do not coincide with any pair of lines in the figure.

- Two masses $m$ and $\frac{m}{2}$ are connected at the two ends of a massless rigid rod of length $l$. The rod is suspended by a thin wire of torsional constant $k$ at the centre of mass of the rod-mass system(see figure). Because of torsional constant $k$, the restoring torque is $\tau =k\theta$ for angular displacement $\theta$. If the rod is rota ted by $\theta_0$ and released, the tension in it when it passes through its mean position will be:
