Answer #1

No value for the mass is given. So, I have derived how to approach the problem.

NOTE :

a) If you find the solution doubtful or doesn't match with your answer provided, or you feel that I am wrong by any means feel free to mention that in comment. Otherwise your downvote will keep me in doubt. So that i can correct myself and it will also help me in future to guide others.

b) Please re-check the calculation and inform me if there is any error. Happy to help.

c) Some feedbacks or rating will help me to improve myself. Wish you all the best. Happy Learning. Thank You.
