A ball of mass 0.5kg0 . 5kg is attached to a string of length 50cm50cm. The ball is rotated on a horizontal circular path about its vertical axis. The maximum tension that the string can bear is 400N400N. The maximum possible value of angular velocity of the ball in rads−1rad{s}^{- 1} is,:

Options

  1. A16001600
  2. B4040
  3. C10001000
  4. D2020

Correct answer

B. 4040

Step-by-step solution

Let the string makes angle θ\theta with the vertical. Weight will be balanced by the vertical component of tension, which is Tcosθ=mg andthehorizontalcomponenttowardsthecentrewillprovidetherequiredcentripetalforceforcircularmotion.Therefore,</p><p>Tsinθ=mω2(lsinθ)Tcos\theta = mg and the horizontal component towards the centre will provide the required centripetal force for circular motion. Therefore,</p><p>Tsin\theta = m{\omega}^{2}\left(lsin\theta\right), where l=l =length of the string.

⇒400sinθ=0.5ω2×0.5sinθ⇒ 400sin\theta = 0 .5 {\omega}^{2} \times 0 .5 sin\theta

⇒ω=40rads−1⇒ \omega = 40rad{s}^{- 1}
