One end of an ideal string is connected with a very small ball of mass m and the other end is connected with a fixed point O. The ball can move in vertical circle. At the lowest point, speed of ball is v.

Line connecting is horizontal, A is lowest point and C is highest point of circle.

List - I

List - II

(P)

(1) At some point tension in string becomes zero.

(Q)

(2) Tension in string never becomes zero.

(R)

(3) Velocity becomes zero at highest point of its path.

(S)

(4) Particle performs projectile motion for some duration.

 

(5) At the lowest point tension in string is greater than weight of ball

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Tension can vanish only if ; the circle completes only for .

(P) : oscillates, tension never zero; P 2,3,5

(Q) : just reaches level of O, tension zero there; Q 1,3,5

(R) : leaves circle, projectile; R 1,4,5

(S) : completes circle; S 2,5

Answer: C
