A body is moving with constant velocity on the path shown.

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
(a, b, c,): At A:

mg – N A = 
N A = mg – 
At B:

N B – mg = 
N B = mg + 
At C:
N C = mg – 
At D:
N D = mg + 
From figure r B < r D
hence N B > N D
Hence N B is greatest
r C < r A
N C < N A
Hence N C is least
At A & C; N A < mg
N C < mg
At B & D; N B > mg
N D > mg
