(b) $F = m\left( {\frac{{4{\pi ^2}}}{{{T^2}}}} \right)R$. If masses and time periods are same then $F \propto R$

$\therefore {F_1}/{F_2} = {R_1}/{R_2}$

    A hemispherical bowl of radius $r$ is set rotating about its axis of symmetry in vertical. A small block kept in the bowl rotates with bowl without slipping on its surface. If the surface of the bowl is smooth and the angle made by the radius through the block with the vertical is $\theta$, then find the angular speed at which the ball is rotating.

    A block of mass $M$ rests on a rough horizontal table. A steadily increasing horizontal force is applied such that the block starts to slide on the table without toppling. The force is continued even after sliding has started. Assume the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the table and the block to be equal. The correct representation of the variation of the frictional force $f$, exerted by the table on the block with time $t$ is given by
