Question

In the given figure, a smooth parabolic wire track lies in the $x y$ -plane (vertical). The shape of track is defined by the equation $y = x^{2}$ . A ring of mass $m$ which can slide freely on the wire track, is placed at the position $A (1, 1)$ . The track is rotated with constant angular speed $ω$ such that there is no relative slipping between the ring and the track, the value of $ω$ is

N cos ⁡ θ = m g And N sin ⁡ θ = m ω 2 r ∴ tan ⁡ θ = ω 2 r g ...(i) Given y = x 2 ∴ d y d x = 2 x Or tan ⁡ θ = 2 × 1 = 2 ...(ii) From above equations, we get ω = 2 g r = 1 m
