A boy 1.5 m tall with his eye level at 1.38 m stands before a mirror fixed on a wall. The minimum length of mirror required to view the complete image of boy is

0.75 m

0.06 m

0.69 m

0.12 m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Minimum leght of mirror required ` =(1)/(2) xx "Height of boy" = (1)/(2) xx 1.5 = 0.75 m`

A simple pendulum of length L having a bob of mass m is deflected from its rest position by an angle theta and released figure. The string hits a peg which is fixed at distance x below the point of suspension and the bob starts going in a circle centred at the peg. a. Assuming that initially the bob has a height less thasn the peg, show that the maximum height reached by the bob equals its initialheight. b. If the pendulum is released with theta=90^0 and m=L/2 find the maximum height reached by the bob above its lowest positon before the string becomes slack. c. Find the minimum value of x/L for which the bob goes in a complete circle about the pet when the pendulum is released from theta=90^0 .
