$A$ 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 ........... $cm$.

The bob of a simple pendulum is of mass $10 \, g$. It is suspended with a thread of $1 \, m$. If we hold the bob so as to stretch the string horizontally and release it,what will be the tension at the lowest position? (Take $g = 10 \, m/s^2$)

$A$ stone of mass $1 \ kg$ tied to a light inextensible string of length $L = \frac{5}{3} \ m$ is rotating in a circular path of radius $L$ in a vertical plane. If the ratio of maximum tension in the string to the minimum tension in the string is $3$,the speed of the stone at the highest point of the circle is ($g =$ acceleration due to gravity).
