In the given figure, a smooth parabolic wire track lies in the `xy`-plane (vertical). The shape of track is defined by the equation `y=x^(2)`. A ring of mass `m` which can slide freely on the wire track, is placed at the position `A (1,1)`. The track is rotated with constant angular speed `omega` such that there is no relative slipping between the ring and the track. The value of `omega` is

A

`sqrt(g//2)`

B

`sqrtg`

C

`sqrt(2g)`

D

`2sqrtg`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`N cos theta=mg and N sin theta=momega^(2)r`
`:.tan theta=(omega^(2)r)/g`...(i)
Given `y=x^(2), :.(dy)/(dx)=2x`
or `tan theta =2xx1=2`..(ii)
From above equation, we get
`omega=sqrt(2g) (r=1m)`

A point charge +q is fixed at point A on the circumference of a fixed smooth non-conducting circular wire track of radius R in a gravity free space. A small ring of mass m and charge + which can slide freely on the wire track is given tangential velocity at point B which is diametrically opposite to A . If the distance of closest approach between the fixed charge and the ring is R then force applied by the wire track on the ring just after the release will be
