A body of mass `m` is rotated in a vertical circle with help of light string such that velocity of body at a point is equal to critical velocity at that point. If `T_(1), T_(2)` be the tensions in the string when the body is crossing the highest and the lowest positions then the following relation is correct

A

`T_(2)-T_(1)=6 mg `

B

` T_(2)- T_(1)=4 mg `

C

`T_(2)-T_(1)=3 mg`

D

`T_(2)-T(1)=2 mg `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`f_(1)=(mv^(2))/(r)-mg=0andT_(2)=(mv^(2))/(r)+mg`
`=6 mg`
`thereforeT_(2)-T_(1)=6 mg.`
