A particle is moving in a vertical circle. The tensions in the string when passing through two positions at angles 30 o and 60 o from vertical (lowest position) are T 1 and T 2 respectively. then
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Tension, \(T = \frac{mv^{2}}{r} + mg \cos \varphi\)
For, \(\omega = 30^\circ, \quad T_1 = \frac{mv^2}{r} + mg \cos 30^\circ\)
\(\omega = 60^\circ, \quad T_2 = \frac{mv^2}{r} + mg \cos 60^\circ \quad \ldots T > T_2\)
