In a circus,a stuntman rides a motorbike on a circular track of radius $R$ in the vertical plane. The minimum speed at the highest point of the track will be:

  • A
    $\sqrt{2gR}$
  • B
    $2gR$
  • C
    $\sqrt{3gR}$
  • D

$A$ frictionless track $ABCDE$ ends in a circular loop of radius $R$. $A$ body slides down the track from point $A$ which is at a height $h = 5\, cm$. The maximum value of $R$ for the body to successfully complete the loop is ........... $cm$.

$A$ light rigid wire of length $1 \,m$ is attached to a ball of mass $500 \,g$ at one end. The other end of the wire is fixed, so that the wire can rotate freely in the vertical plane about its fixed end. At the lowest point of the circular motion, the ball is given a horizontal velocity of $6 \,m/s$. Determine the radial component of the acceleration of the ball when this rigid wire makes an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the upward vertical. (Take $g = 10 \,m/s^2$) (in $\,m/s^2$)

If a particle completes a vertical circular motion,what is the ratio of its velocities at points $A$,$B$,and $C$?

$A$ bucket tied at the end of a $1.6\, m$ long string is whirled in a vertical circle with constant speed. What should be the minimum speed so that the water from the bucket does not spill,when the bucket is at the highest position? (Take $g = 10\, m/s^2$)

$A$ steel wire can withstand a load up to $2940 \ N$. $A$ load of $150 \ kg$ is suspended from a rigid support. The maximum angle through which the wire can be displaced from the mean position,so that the wire does not break when the load passes through the position of equilibrium,is (in $^{\circ}$)
