A particle is given an intial speed `u` inside a smooth spherical shell of radius `R` so that it is just able to complete the circle. Acceleration of the particle, when its velocity is vertical, is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C

At position `theta` ,
`v^(2)=v_(0)^(2)+2gh`
where, `h=a(1-costheta)`
:. `v^(2)=(sqrt(2ag))^(2)+2ag(1-costheta)`
or `v^(2)=2ag(2-costheta)` ...(i)
`N+mgcostheta=(mv^(2))/(a)`
or `N+mgcostheta=2mg(2-costheta)`
or `N=mg(4-3costheta)`
Net vertical force,
`F=Ncostheta+mg`
`=mg(4costheta-3cos^(2)theta+1)`
This force (or acceleration) will maximum when `(dF)/(dtheta)=0`
or `-4sintheta+6sinthetacos=0`
So, either
`sintheta=0` ,
`theta=0^(@)` ,
or `costheta=(2)/(3)` ,
`theta=cos^(-1)((2)/(3))`
`theta=0^(@)` is unacceptable
Therefore, the desired position is at
`thetacos^(-1)((2)/(3))`
