A sphere is suspended by a thread of length l. What minimum horizontal velocity has to be imparted the ball for it to reach the height of the suspension?

A

g l

B

2 g l

C

`sqrt gl`

D

`sqrt 2 g l`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Kinetic energy given to a sphere at lowest point= Potential energy at the height of suspension,
`therefore (1)/(2) mv^(2)mgl" "therefore v=sqrt(2gl)`.
