The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the angle of inclination of the string in a conical pendulum arrangement, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given parameters - Length of the string, \( L = 1 \, \text{m} \) - Mass of the bob, \( m = 100 \, \text{g} = 0.1 \, \text{kg} \) - Linear velocity, \( v = \frac{2}{\pi} \, \text{m/s} \) - Acceleration due to gravity, \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) ### Step 2: Relate linear velocity to angular velocity The relationship between linear velocity \( v \) and angular velocity \( \omega \) is given by: \[ v = r \omega \] where \( r \) is the horizontal radius of the circular path. ### Step 3: Find the radius of the circular path In a conical pendulum, the radius \( r \) can be expressed in terms of the angle \( \theta \): \[ r = L \sin \theta \] Substituting this into the equation for linear velocity: \[ v = L \sin \theta \cdot \omega \] ### Step 4: Calculate angular velocity The angular velocity \( \omega \) can be calculated using: \[ \omega = \frac{v}{r} = \frac{v}{L \sin \theta} \] Given \( v = \frac{2}{\pi} \), we can express \( \omega \) as: \[ \omega = \frac{2/\pi}{L \sin \theta} \] ### Step 5: Write the equations of motion For the conical pendulum, we have two forces acting on the bob: 1. Tension \( T \) in the string. 2. Weight \( mg \) acting downward. The vertical component of the tension balances the weight: \[ T \cos \theta = mg \] The horizontal component provides the centripetal force: \[ T \sin \theta = m r \omega^2 \] ### Step 6: Substitute \( r \) and \( \omega \) Substituting \( r = L \sin \theta \) and \( \omega = \frac{v}{r} \): \[ T \sin \theta = m (L \sin \theta) \left(\frac{v}{L \sin \theta}\right)^2 \] This simplifies to: \[ T \sin \theta = m \frac{v^2}{L} \] ### Step 7: Substitute \( T \) from the vertical balance From \( T \cos \theta = mg \), we can express \( T \): \[ T = \frac{mg}{\cos \theta} \] Substituting this into the horizontal equation: \[ \frac{mg}{\cos \theta} \sin \theta = m \frac{v^2}{L} \] ### Step 8: Simplify the equation Dividing both sides by \( m \): \[ \frac{g \sin \theta}{\cos \theta} = \frac{v^2}{L} \] This gives: \[ g \tan \theta = \frac{v^2}{L} \] ### Step 9: Substitute known values Substituting \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \), \( v = \frac{2}{\pi} \, \text{m/s} \), and \( L = 1 \, \text{m} \): \[ 10 \tan \theta = \frac{\left(\frac{2}{\pi}\right)^2}{1} \] Calculating \( \left(\frac{2}{\pi}\right)^2 \): \[ \left(\frac{2}{\pi}\right)^2 = \frac{4}{\pi^2} \] Thus: \[ 10 \tan \theta = \frac{4}{\pi^2} \] \[ \tan \theta = \frac{4}{10 \pi^2} = \frac{2}{5 \pi^2} \] ### Step 10: Find \( \theta \) To find \( \theta \), we take the arctangent: \[ \theta = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{2}{5 \pi^2}\right) \] ### Final Answer The angle of inclination of the string with the vertical is: \[ \theta = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{2}{5 \pi^2}\right) \]
