$A$ roller coaster is designed such that riders experience "weightlessness" as they go round the top of a hill whose radius of curvature is $20\, m$. The speed of the car at the top of the hill is between

One end of a string of length $l$ is connected to a particle of mass $m$ and the other to a small peg on a smooth horizontal table. If the particle moves in a circle with speed $v$,the net force on the particle (directed towards the centre) is :
$(i) \; T$
$(ii) \; T - \frac{m v^{2}}{l}$
$(iii) \; T + \frac{m v^{2}}{l}$
$(iv) \; 0$
$T$ is the tension in the string. [Choose the correct alternative].

$A$ small $100 \ g$ sleeve $B$ can slide on a smooth,circular and rigid wire frame $A$ of radius $5 \ m$ placed in a vertical plane. The wire frame is rotating about its vertical diameter at $2 \ rad/s$. When the sleeve is brought to a particular angular position $\theta$ (measured from the vertical downward axis) other than the bottom and the top of the ring,the sleeve will not slide on the wire frame. Calculate the normal force $N$ (in Newtons) of interaction between the sleeve and the wire frame at this position.
