MCQ
A particle is whirled in a vertical circle of radius $1.0\  m$ using a string with one end fixed. If the ratio of maximum and minimum tension in the string is $\frac{5}{3}$, the minimum velocity of the particle during circular motion is    ......... $ms^{-1}$
  • A
    $\sqrt {10} $
  • B
    $\sqrt {50}$
  • $10$
  • D
    $10\sqrt 5 $

Answer

Correct option: C.
$10$
c
$\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{max}}-\mathrm{mg}=\frac{\mathrm{mv}_{\mathrm{max}}^{2}}{\mathrm{R}}$

$\mathrm{mg}+\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{min}}=\frac{\mathrm{mv}_{\mathrm{min}}^{2}}{\mathrm{R}}$

$\frac{T_{\max }}{T_{\min }}=\frac{\frac{v_{\max }^{2}}{R}+g}{\frac{v_{\min }^{2}}{R}-g}$

$\Rightarrow \mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{m} \mathrm{in}}=10 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

A block of mass $M$ has a circular cut with a frictionless surface as shown. The block rests on the horizontal frictionless surface of a fixed table. Initially the right edge of the block is at $x=0$, in a co-ordinate system fixed to the table. A point mass $m$ is released from rest at the topmost point of the path as shown and it slides down. When the mass loses contact with the block, its position is $\mathrm{x}$ and the velocity is $\mathrm{v}$. At that instant, which of the following options is/are correct?

(image)

$[A]$ The $x$ component of displacement of the center of mass of the block $M$ is : $-\frac{m R}{M+m}$.

[$B$] The position of the point mass is : $x=-\sqrt{2} \frac{\mathrm{mR}}{\mathrm{M}+\mathrm{m}}$.

[$C$] The velocity of the point mass $m$ is : $v=\sqrt{\frac{2 g R}{1+\frac{m}{M}}}$.

[$D$] The velocity of the block $M$ is: $V=-\frac{m}{M} \sqrt{2 g R}$.
