A bob of mass 0.25 kg hung from a ceiling of a room by a string 1 m long is set into oscillation. The speed of the bob at its mean position is 1.5 m/s. What is the trajectory of the bob if the string is cut when the bob is
at one of its extreme positions.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

At the extreme position, velocity is zero, so the bob will fall down straight.
