In th efigure shown in fig. `10.33` , a bob attached with a light string of radius `R` is given as initial velocity `u=sqrt(4gR)` at the bottommost point.
(a) At what height string will slack.
(b) What is velocity of the bob just befare slacking of string.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, C

String will slack at height `h_(1)` , discussed in article `10.5` where,
`h_(1)=(u^(2)+gR)/(3g)=(5)/(3)R` , `(as u^(2)=4gR)`
`v=sqrt(u^(2)-2gh_(1))=sqrt(4gR-2gxx(5)/(3)R)`
`=sqrt((2)/(3)gR)`

A small ball is attached to an end of a light string of length R. It is suspended in vertical plane supported at point A. B and C are two nails (of negligible thickness) at a horizontal distance 0.3 R from A and a vertical distance 0.4 R above A respectively. The ball is given a horizontal velocity u = sqrt5gR) at its lowest point. Subsequently, after the string hitting the nails, the nails become the centre of rotation. Assume no loss in kinetic energy when the string hits the nails. It is known that the string will break if tension in it is suddenly increased by 200% or more. Will the string break during the motion? If yes, where? What is tension in the string at the instant the string breaks?
