A long, thin, inextensible and very flexible uniform wire is lying on the rough horizontal floor. One end of the wire is bent back and then pulled backwards with constant velocity V such that, at any instant of time, the moving part of the wire always remains just above the part of the wire which is still at rest at that instant on the floor as shown in diagram. If the wire has unit length and unit mass then,
