At which position in the string of simple pendulum has maximum tension?

For a particle rotating in a vertical circle with uniform speed, the maximum and minimum tension in the string are in the ratio 5 : 3. If the radius of vertical circle is 2 m, the speed of revolving body is ( g=10m//s^(2) )

A ball of mass (m) 0.5 kg is attached to the end of a string having length (L) 0.5 m . The ball is rotated on a horizontal circular path about vertical axis. The maximum tension that the string can bear is 324 N . The maximum possible value of angular velocity of ball ( radian//s) is - .

A stone of mass 0.25 kg tied to the end of a string is whirled round in a circle of radius 1.5 m with a speed of 40 rev./min in a horizontal plane. What is the tension in the string ? What is the maximum speed with which the stone can be whirled around if the string can withstand a maximum tension of 200 N ?

A stone of of mass 0 .25 kg tied to the end of a string is whirled round in a circle of radius 1.5 m with a speed of 40 rev//min in a horizontal plane What is the tension in the string ? What is the maximum speed with which the stone can be whirled around If the string can withstand a maximum tension of 200 N ?

(a) A box of weight 10sqrt(3) N is held n equilibrium with the help of two strings OA and OB as shown in figure-1. the string OA is horizontal. Find the tensions in both the stings. (b) If you can change location of the point A on the wall and hence the orientation of the string OA without altering the orientation of the string OB as shown in figure-II. what angle should the string OA make with the wall so that a minimum tension is developed in it?

The angle made by the string of a simple pendulum with the vertical depends on time as theta=pi/90sin[(pis^-1)t] . Find the length of the pendulum if g=pi^2ms^-2

A simple pendulum has a length L and a bob of mass m. The bob is oscillating with amplitude A. Show that the maximum tension (T) in the string is (for small angular displacement). T_("max") =mg [1+(A/L)^(2)] .

In the following figure, if the tension in the string AB is 51N, then the tension in the string BC will be :- ltimg src="https://d10lpgp6xz60nq.cloudfront.net/physics_images/ALN_PHY_R03_E05_005_Q01.png" width="80%"gt
