A stone is fastened to one end of a string and is whirled in a verticla circle of radius R. Find the minimum speed the stone can have at the highest point of the circle.

A

`v=sqrt(3Rg)`

B

`v=sqrt(Rg)`

C

`v=sqrt(4Rg)`

D

`v=sqrt(7Rg)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
At highest point of vertical circle,
