$A$ stone of mass $1\, kg$ tied to a light inextensible string of length $L = \frac{10}{3}\, m$ is whirling in a circular path of radius $L$ in a vertical plane. If the ratio of the maximum tension in the string to the minimum tension in the string is $4$ and if $g$ is taken to be $10\, m/s^2$,the speed of the stone at the highest point of the circle is ....... $m/s$.

$A$ $1\, kg$ stone at the end of a $1\, m$ long string is whirled in a vertical circle at a constant speed of $4\, m/s$. The tension in the string is $6\, N$ when the stone is at $(g = 10\, m/s^2)$.

$A$ block of mass $m$ is given a velocity $20\ m/s$ on a horizontal rough surface of length $x\ m$. After the rough surface,there is a vertical circular path of radius $R = 2\ m$ which is frictionless. The block enters the circular path with the minimum velocity required to complete the path. Find the length of the rough surface $x$ if the coefficient of friction is $\mu = 0.5$.
