$A$ 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 ....... $m/s$.

$A$ bob of mass $m$ is suspended by a light string of length $l$. The bob is given a horizontal velocity $v_0$ as shown in the figure. If the string becomes slack at some point $P$ making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal,the ratio of the speed $v_p$ of the bob at point $P$ to its initial speed $v_0$ is:

$A$ point mass '$m$' attached at one end of a massless,inextensible string of length '$\ell$' performs a vertical circular motion and the string rotates in a vertical plane,as shown in the diagram. The increase in the centripetal acceleration of the point mass when it moves from point $A$ to point $C$ is $(g = \text{acceleration due to gravity})$:

$A$ stone of mass $m$ tied to the end of a string revolves in a vertical circle of radius $R$. The net forces at the lowest and highest points of the circle directed vertically downwards are:
Lowest PointHighest Point
$(a) \ mg - T_1$$mg + T_2$
$(b) \ mg + T_1$$mg - T_2$
$(c) \ mg + T_1 - \frac{mv_1^2}{R}$$mg - T_2 + \frac{mv_2^2}{R}$
$(d) \ mg - T_1 - \frac{mv_1^2}{R}$$mg + T_2 + \frac{mv_2^2}{R}$

$T_1$ and $v_1$ denote the tension and speed at the lowest point. $T_2$ and $v_2$ denote corresponding values at the highest point.

$A$ ball attached to one end of a string swings in a vertical plane such that its acceleration at point $A$ (extreme position) is equal to its acceleration at point $B$ (mean position). The angle $\theta$ is :-
