A body of mass \(10 \mathrm{~g}\) is tied to a string of length \(0.4 \mathrm{~m}\) and it is whirled in a horizontal plane with a speed of \(6 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\). Then the tension in the string is

  1. A \(1.9 \mathrm{~N}\)
  2. B \(36 \mathrm{~N}\)
  3. C \(0.9 \mathrm{~N}\)
  4. D \(3.6 \mathrm{~N}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(0.9 \mathrm{~N}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Mass of body, \(\mathrm{m}=\log =10 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~kg}\) length of string, \(\mathrm{L}=0.4 \mathrm{~m}\) speed, \(v=6 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) In horizontal plane Tension, \(\mathrm{T}=\frac{\mathrm{mv}^2}{\mathrm{r}}\) Here, length of string \(=\) radius of string…
