Consider a particle moving with a minimum speed $v$ at the highest point of a vertical circle of radius $R$. If the radius of the circle is doubled, the corresponding minimum speed will be:

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

$A$ simple pendulum consisting of a light inextensible string of length $\ell$ attached to a heavy small bob of mass $m$ is at rest. The bob is imparted a horizontal impulsive force which gives it a speed of $u = \sqrt{4 g \ell}$. The speed of the bob at its highest point is ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity).

The mass of the $bob$ of a simple pendulum of length $L$ is $m$. If the $bob$ is released from its horizontal position,then the speed of the $bob$ and the tension in the thread at the lowest position of the $bob$ will be respectively:

$A$ bullet of mass $m$ moving with velocity $v$ passes through a pendulum bob of mass $M$ and emerges with a velocity $v/2$. What is the minimum value of $v$ so that the pendulum bob completes a full vertical circle of length $\ell$?

$A$ stone tied to a string of length $L$ is whirled in a vertical circle with the other end of the string at the centre. At a certain instant of time, the stone is at its lowest position and has a speed $u$. The magnitude of the change in its velocity as it reaches a position where the string is horizontal is
