$A$ ball whose size is slightly smaller than the width of a tube of radius $R = 2.5 \, m$ is projected from the bottommost point of a smooth tube fixed in a vertical plane with a velocity of $v_0 = 10 \, m/s$. Let $N_1$ be the normal reaction exerted by the inner side of the tube and $N_2$ be the normal reaction exerted by the outer side of the tube on the ball. Which of the following statements is correct?

  • A
    $N_1 > 0$ for motion in $ABC$,$N_2 > 0$ for motion in $CDA$
  • B
    $N_1 > 0$ for motion in $CDA$,$N_2 > 0$ for motion in $ABC$
  • C
    $N_2 > 0$ for motion in $ABC$ & part of $CDA$
  • D
    $N_1$ is always zero.
