A simple pendulum with length 100 cm and bob of mass 250 g is executing S.H.M of amplitude 10 cm. The maximum tension in the string is found to be 
N. The value of x is_____.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
99
(99)
From the given figure we can see that
From conservation of energy 
Maximum tension occurs at mean position
Substituting the values,
T = 0. 25 x 9. 8 x 1. 01 = 2.4745 N
It is given that
