$A$ bob of mass $m$ is suspended by a light string of length $L$. It is imparted a minimum horizontal velocity at the lowest point $A$ such that it just completes a full vertical circle,reaching the topmost position $B$. The ratio of kinetic energies $\frac{(\text{K.E.})_A}{(\text{K.E.})_B}$ is:

  • A
    $3:2$
  • B
    $5:1$
  • C
    $2:5$
  • D
    $1:5$

$A$ particle is rotated in a vertical circle by connecting it to a light rod of length $l$ and keeping the other end of the rod fixed. The minimum speed of the particle when the light rod is horizontal for which the particle will complete the circle 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 $(g = \text{acceleration due to gravity})$:
