A particle of mass `2m` is connected by an inextensible string of length `1.2 m` to a ring of mass m which is free to slide on a horizontal smooth rod. Initially the ring and the particle are at the same level with the string taut. Both are then released simultaneously. The distance in meter moved by the ring when the string becomes veritcal is :-

A

0

B

`0.4`

C

`0.8`

D

`1.2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`Deltabar(x) = (m_(1).Deltax_(1) + m_(2).Deltax_(2))/(m_(1) + m_(2))`
Let `x =` distance moved by ring
`0 = (mx + 2m(1.2 - x))/(m + 2m) rArr x = 0.8 m`

Two particles each of mass m are connected by a light inextensible string and a particle of mass M is attached to the midpoint of the string. The system is at rest on a smooth horizontal table with string just taut and in a straight line. The particle M is given a velocity v along the table perpendicular to the string. Prove that when the two particles are about to collide : (i) The velocity of M is (Mv)/((M + 2m)) (ii) The speed of each of the other particles is ((sqrt2M (M + m))/((M + 2m)))v .

Two particles, each of mass m, are connected by a light inextensible string of lenthe 2l . Initially they lie on a smooth horizontal table at points A and B distant l apart. The particle at A is projected across the table with velocity u. Find the speed with which the second particle begins to move if the direction of u is :- (i) along BA. (ii) at an angle of 120^(@) with AB (iii) perpendicular to AB. In each case calculate (in teerms of m and u) the impulsive tension in the string.

On end of a light spring of natural length d and spring constant k is fixed on a rigid wall and the other is attached to a smooth ring of mass m which can slide without friction on a vertical rod fixed at a distance d from the wall. Initially the spring makes an angle of 37^@ with the horizontal. as shown in figure. When the system is released from rest, find the speed of the ring when the spring becomes horizontal. (sin 37^@=3/5) .

A small ring of mass m_(1) is connected by a string of length l to a small heavy bob of mass m_(2) . The ring os free to move (slide) along a fixed smooth horizontal wire.
