$A$ $1 \,kg$ 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:

  • A
    Top of the circle
  • B
    Bottom of the circle
  • C
    Halfway down
  • D
    None of the above

The bob of a simple pendulum is of mass $10 \, g$. It is suspended with a thread of $1 \, m$. If we hold the bob so as to stretch the string horizontally and release it,what will be the tension at the lowest position? (Take $g = 10 \, m/s^2$)

$A$ body of mass $m$ is tied to a string of length $l$ and rotated in a vertical circle. What is the difference in tension between the lowest point and the highest point (in $,mg$)?

$A$ stone of mass $2 \,kg$ tied to a light inextensible string of length $\frac{5}{3} \,m$ is whirling in a circular path in a vertical plane. If the ratio of the maximum tension to the minimum tension in the string is $4$, then the speed of the stone at the highest point of the circle is $\left(g=10 \,ms^{-2}\right)$.

$A$ bullet of mass $m$ and velocity $v$ strikes the bob of a pendulum of mass $M$ and emerges out with velocity $v/2$. What is the minimum value of $v$ such that the bob of the pendulum will swing through a complete circle? (Take the length of the pendulum $= \ell$)
