$A$ particle originally at rest at the highest point of a smooth vertical circle is slightly displaced. It will leave the circle at a vertical distance $h$ below the highest point such that

  • A
    $h = R$
  • B
    $h = \frac{R}{3}$
  • C
    $h = \frac{R}{2}$
  • D
    $h = \frac{2R}{3}$

$A$ 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 $^{\circ}$)

$A$ particle with charge $Q$ coulomb, tied at the end of an inextensible string of length $R$ metre, revolves in a vertical plane. At the centre of the circular trajectory, there is a fixed charge of magnitude $Q$ coulomb. The mass of the moving charge $M$ is such that $Mg = \frac{Q^2}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 R^2}$. If at the highest position of the particle, the tension of the string just vanishes, the horizontal velocity at the lowest point has to be
