A ball of mass ' m ' is attached to the free end of a string of length ' l '. The ball is moving in horizontal circular path about the vertical axis as shown in the diagram. The angular velocity ' ' of the ball will be [ T = Tension in the string. ]
Options
- AT l ~m
- BTm l
- Cm l ~T
- DT m l
Correct answer
D. T m l
Step-by-step solution
The tension in the string can be resolved in two components along the perpendicular axis. The gravitational force is acting downwards and the centrifugal force is acting in - x direction aligned & T = mr ^2 & ^2= T mr aligned = T mr From figure, = r l aligned & = Tr mr l & = T m l & aligned
