A block of mass m at the end of a string is whirled round in a vertical circle of radius R. The critical speed of the block at the top of its swing below which the string would slacken before the block reaches the top is

A

Rg

B

`(Rg)^(2)`

C

R/g

D

`sqrt(Rg)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
At highest point `to (mv^(2))/r =mg rArr v = sqrt(gR)`
