A small pot completely filled with water is tied at the end of a 1.6 m long string . It is whirled in a vertical circle what minimum speed should be given to the pot , so that the water from the pot does not spill when the pot is at the highest postion ? ( use `g= 10 m//s^(2))`

A

`2 m//s`

B

`4 m//s`

C

`8 m//s`

D

`16 m//s`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`V_(min ) = sqrt( gr ) = sqrt(10xx1.6)= 4 m//s`
