A bead \(P\) sliding on a frictionless semi-circular string \((A C B)\) and it is at point \(S\) at \(t =0\) and at this instant the horizontal component of its velocity is \(v\). Another bead \(Q\) of the same mass as \(P\) is ejected from point \(A\) at \(t =0\) along the horizontal string \(A B\), with the speed \(v\), friction between the beads and the respective strings may be neglected in both cases. Let \(t_p\) and \(t_Q\) be the respective times taken by beads \(P\) and \(Q\) to reach the point \(B\), then the relation between \(t_p\) and \(t_Q\) is

- A \(t_{P}>t_{Q}\)
- B \(t_{p} < t_{Q}\)
- C \(t_{p}>1.25t_{Q}\)
- D \(t_{p}=t_{Q}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(t_{p} < t_{Q}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Horizontal displacement of Q is more than P. \(X_{Q}>X_{p}\) Horizontal component of velocity is same So \(t _{ p }=\frac{ x _{ p }}{ v }\) \(t_Q=\frac{x_Q}{v}\) \(t_{p} < t_{Q}\)
