[QUE/CM-01023] --- Variable Mass Problem

One end of link chain is fixed to a support at \(z=0\). The free end of an, open, link-chain   of length $L$,  and weight $\mu$ per unit length, is released from rest at $x=0$. Determine the tension $T$ in the chain at its support at $A$ in terms of $x$. also determine the energy loss, $\Delta E$ during the entire motion $x=0$ to $x=2L$.
