A sphere of radius 0.1m0. 1m and mass 8πkg8 \pi \text{kg} is attached to the lower end of a steel wire of length 5.0m5. 0m & diameter 10−3m{10}^{- 3}m. The wire is suspended from 5.22m5. 22m high ceiling of a room. When the sphere is made to swing like a simple pendulum, it just grazes the floor at its lowest point. Calculate the velocity of the sphere at the lowest position. YY for steel = 1.994×1011Nm−21. 994 \times {10}^{11}Nm^{- 2}A sphere of radius 0. 1m and mass 8 π kg is attached to the lower end of a steel wire of length 5. 0m & diameter 10 ^ -

Options

  1. A7.7ms−17. 7ms^{- 1}
  2. B4.4ms−14. 4ms^{- 1}
  3. C2.2ms−12. 2ms^{- 1}
  4. D8.8ms−18. 8ms^{- 1}

Correct answer

D. 8.8ms−18. 8ms^{- 1}

Step-by-step solution

As the length of the wire is 5m5m and diameter 2×0.1=0.2m2 \times 0 . 1 = 0 . 2m and at the lowest point, it grazes the floor which is at a distance 5.22m5 . 22m from the roof, the increase in the length of the wire at lowest point

A sphere of radius 0. 1m and mass 8 π kg is attached to the lower end of a steel wire of length 5. 0m & diameter 10 ^ -

ΔL=5.22−(5+0.2)\Delta \text{L} = 5 \text{.} 2 2 - \left(5 + 0 \text{.}2\right)

=0.02m= 0 \text{.}0 2 \text{m}

So the tension in the wire (due to elasticity)

T=YALΔT = \dfrac{YA}{L} \Delta L = \dfrac{1\text{.}994 \times 1{0}^{11} \times \pi\left(5 \times 1{0}^{- 4}\right)2 \times 0\text{.}02}{5} ==199\text{.}}4\pi\text{ N}

and as the equation of circular - motion of a mass mm tied to a string in a vertical plane is

mv2r=\dfrac{mv^{2}}{r} = T - mg cos\text{g cos}\theta<br/><br/>Soatthelowestpoint<br/><br/>mv2r=<br /><br />So at the lowest point<br /><br />\dfrac{mv^{2}}{r} = T - mg[asθ=0]\text{g} \left[\text{as} \theta = 0\right]

But here r=5+0.02+0.1=5.12mr = 5 + 0 . 02 + 0 . 1 = 5 . 12m

So \left(\dfrac{8\piv^{2}}{5 . 12}\right) = 199\text{.}4\pi - 8\pi \times 9\text{.}8<br/><br/>i.e.,<br /><br />i.e.,v^{2} = \left(1 2 1 \times 5 \text{.} 1 2 / 8\right) = 7 7 \text{.} 4 4<br/><br/>So<br /><br />Sov = 8 . 8ms^{- 1}
