Since the maximum tension $T_B$ in the string moving in the vertical circle is at the bottom and minimum tension $T_T$ is at the top.
$\therefore T_B=\frac{m v_B^2}{L}+m g \text { and } T_T=\frac{m v_T^2}{L}-m g $
$\therefore \frac{T_B}{T_T}=\frac{\frac{m v_B^2}{L}+m g}{\frac{m v_T^2}{L}-m g}=\frac{4}{1} \text { or } \frac{v_B^2+g L}{v_T^2-g L}=\frac{4}{1}$
or $v_B^2+g L=4 v_T^2-4 g L$ but $v_B^2=v_T^2+4 g L$
$\therefore v_T^2+4 g L+g L=4 v_T^2-4 g L \Rightarrow 3 v_T^2=9 g L$
$\therefore v_T^2=3 \times g \times L=3 \times 10 \times \frac{10}{}$ or $v_T=10 m / sec$

A ball is rolled off the edge of a horizontal table at a speed of 4 $m /$ second. It hits the ground after 0.4 second. Which statement given below is true
  • A
    It hits the ground at a horizontal distance $1.6 m$ from the edge of the table
  • B
    The speed with which it hits the ground is $4.0 m / second$
  • C
    Height of the table is $0.8 m$
  • A and C both 
Answer
Correct option: D.
A and C both 
Vertical component of velocity of ball at point $P$
$v_V=0+g t=10 \times 0.4=4 m / s$
Horizontal component of velocity $=$ initial velocity
$\Rightarrow v_H=4 m / s$


$v=\sqrt{v_H^2+v_V^2}=4 \sqrt{2} m / s$
and $\tan \theta=\frac{v_V}{v_H}=\frac{4}{4}=1 \Rightarrow \theta=45^{\circ}$
It means the ball hits the ground at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ to the horizontal.
Height of the table $h=\frac{1}{2} g t^2=\frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times(0.4)^2=0.8 m$
Horizontal distance travelled by the ball from the edge of table $h=u t=4 \times 0.4=1.6 m$

    $400 m$
  • D
    $800 m$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$200 m$
(b)
$R_{\max }=\frac{u^2}{g}=400 m $ $\theta=45^{\circ}$ 
$H_{\max }=\frac{u^2}{2 g}=\frac{400}{2}=200 m$(For $\theta=90^{\circ}$ )

An aeroplane moving horizontally with a speed of $720 km / h$ drops a food pocket, while flying at a height of $396.9 m$. the time taken by a food pocket to reach the ground and its horizontal range is (Take $g=9.8 m / sec )$
  • A
    $3 sec$ and $2000 m$
  • B
    $5 sec$ and $500 m$
  • C
    $8 sec$ and $1500 m$
  • $9 sec$ and $1800 m$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$9 sec$ and $1800 m$
(d) $t=\sqrt{\frac{2 h}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2 \times 396.9}{9.8}} \simeq 9 sec$ and $u=720 km / hr =200 m / s$ $\therefore R=u \times t=200 \times 9=1800 m$

The magnitude of the centripetal force acting on a body of mass $m$ executing uniform motion in a circle of radius $r$ with speed $v$ is
  • $m v r$
  • B
    $m v^2 / r$
  • C
    $v / r^2 m$
  • D
    $v / r m$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$m v r$
(a) $T=m \omega^2 r \Rightarrow 10=0.25 \times \omega^2 \times 0.1 \Rightarrow \omega=20rad / s$

A car sometimes overturns while taking a turn. When it overturns, it is
  • The inner wheel which leaves the ground first
  • B
    The outer wheel which leaves the ground first
  • C
    Both the wheels leave the ground simultaneously
  • D
    Either wheel leaves the ground first
Answer
Correct option: A.
The inner wheel which leaves the ground first
(a) Because the reaction on inner wheel decreases and becomes zero. So it leaves the ground first.
