A body of mass 10 kg is attached to a wire of 0.3 m length. The breaking stress is 4.8×107 N m-2. The area of cross-section from the wire is 10-6 m2. The maximum angular velocity with which it can be rotated in a horizontal circle is

  1. A 4 rad s-1
  2. B 8 rad s-1
  3. C 16 rad s-1
  4. D 32 rad s-1
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 4 rad s-1

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The braking tension force for the wire is, F=σ·A ⇒F=4.8×107 N m-210-6 m2⇒F=48 N Now, the tension force will provide the necessary centripetal force so that it can rotate in a horizontal circle,…
