A 60 cm metal rod OA is joined to another 100 cm metal rod OB to form an L shaped single piece. This piece is hung on a peg at the joint O . The two rods are observed to be equally inclined to the vertical. If the two rods are equally thick, the ratio of density of OA to that of OB is
 

a
5/3
b
3/5
c
25/9
d
9/25

detailed solution

Correct option is C

For equilibrium, moment of m1g about O = moment of m2g about O ⇒ (λ1 x 60 x g) x 30sinθ =  (λ2 x 100 x g) x 50sinθ
