$A$ string of length $L$ fixed at one end carries a body of mass $m$ at the other end. The mass is revolved in a circle in the horizontal plane about a vertical axis passing through the fixed end of the string. The string makes an angle $\theta$ with the vertical. The angular frequency of the body is $\omega$. The tension in the string is

  • A
    $mL^2 \omega$
  • B
    $mL \omega^2$
  • C
    $\frac{\omega^2}{mL}$
  • D
    $\frac{m \omega^2}{L}$

$A$ ball of mass $0.25 \, kg$ attached to the end of a string of length $1.96 \, m$ is moving in a horizontal circle. The string will break if the tension is more than $25 \, N$. The maximum speed with which the ball can be moved is .......... $m/s$.

$A$ string breaks if its tension exceeds $10 \, N$. $A$ stone of mass $250 \, g$ tied to this string of length $10 \, cm$ is rotated in a horizontal circle. The maximum angular velocity of rotation can be .......... $rad/s$.

In a conical pendulum,the bob of mass $m$ moves in a horizontal circle of radius $r$ with uniform speed $V$. The string of length $L$ describes a cone of semi-vertical angle $\theta$. The centripetal force acting on the bob is $(g = \text{acceleration due to gravity})$

With what frequency should a particle of mass $m$ be rotated so that a body of mass $M$ remains stationary?
