A frictionless wire AB is fixed on a sphere of radius R . A very small spherical ball slips on this wire. The time taken by this ball to slip from A to B is
Options
- A2 g R g
- B2 g R g
- C2 R g
- Dg R g
Correct answer
C. 2 R g
Step-by-step solution
Acceleration of body along AB is g Distance travelled in time t sec =A B= 1 2 (g ) t² From ABC , AB =2 R Thus, 2 R = 1 2 g t² t²= 4 R g t=2 R g
