    the same throughout the motion
  • B
    minimum at the highest position of the circular path
  • C
    minimum at the lowest position of the circular path

$A$ simple pendulum consisting of a light inextensible string of length $\ell$ attached to a heavy small bob of mass $m$ is at rest. The bob is imparted a horizontal impulsive force which gives it a speed of $u = \sqrt{4 g \ell}$. The speed of the bob at its highest point is ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity).

$A$ body attached to one end of a string performs motion along a vertical circle. Its centripetal acceleration,when the string is horizontal,will be [ $g$ = acceleration due to gravity]

$A$ body of mass '$m$' attached at the end of a string is just completing the loop in a vertical circle. The apparent weight of the body at the lowest point in its path is ($g =$ gravitational acceleration)

$A$ stone tied to a string of length $L$ is whirled in a vertical circle with the other end of the string at the centre. At a certain instant of time, the stone is at its lowest position and has a speed $u$. The magnitude of the change in its velocity, as it reaches a position where the string is horizontal, is $\sqrt{x(u^{2}-gL)}$. The value of $x$ is .............

$A$ stone of mass $40$ g is tied to a light inextensible string of length $50$ cm and whirled in a vertical circle at the rate of $30$ revolutions per minute. The tension in the string when it is at the lowest point of the circle is (Take gravitational acceleration, $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$ and $\pi^2 = 10$) (in $N$)
