On the two ends of the strings, two balls of the same mass m are attached, Arrangement is made in such a way that half of the string is on the table top and half is hanging below. The ball on the table top is made to move in a circular path with a constant speed v, What is the centripetal acceleration of the moving ball?

A bead of mass m is attached to the mid-point of a taut, weightless string of length l and placed on a frictionless horizontal table. Under a small transverse displacement x, as shown, if the tension in the string is T, then the frequency of oscillation is-

A mass of 0.675 kg on a frictionless table is attached to a string which passes through a hole in the table at the centre. If the radius of the circle in which the mass rotates, is 5 m when its speed is 10 ms^(-1) , find the tension of the string. It is found that on drawing down the string by 0.2 m, the tension is increased 4.63 times. Calculate the work done by the string on the revolving mass during the reduction of the radius. [Hint : Apply work-energy theorem to find work done by the force]
