To solve the problem of finding the radius of the greatest possible loop for a bob attached to a weightless string, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the scenario The bob is moving in a vertical circle, and we are given the velocity of the bob at the lowest point (70 m/s). We need to find the maximum radius of the loop. ### Step 2: Apply the concept of centripetal force At the highest point of the loop, the forces acting on the bob are its weight (mg) and the tension in the string (T). The centripetal force required to keep the bob moving in a circle is provided by the tension and the weight of the bob. ...
