A particle of mass m1 Is fastened to one end of a string and another one of mass m2 to the middle point; the other end of the string being fastened to a fixed point on a smooth horizontal table. The particles are then projected, so that the two portions of the string are always in the same straight line and describe horizontal circles. Find the ratio of the tensions in the two parts of the string.
