A stone of mass 1 kg tied to a light inextensible string of length \(\mathrm{L}=\frac{5}{3} \mathrm{~m}\) is rotating in a circular path of radius L in a vertical plane. If the ratio of maximum tension in the string to the minimum tension in the string is 3 , the speed of the stone at the highest point of the circle is ( \(\mathrm{g}=\) acceleration due to gravity)

  1. A \(\sqrt{\mathrm{gL}}\)
  2. B 2 \(\sqrt{\mathrm{gL}}\)
  3. C 4 \(\sqrt{\mathrm{gL}}\)
  4. D 8 \(\sqrt{\mathrm{gL}}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 2 \(\sqrt{\mathrm{gL}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(T_{max} = \frac{mv_b^2}{L} + mg\) \(T_{min} = \frac{mv_t^2}{L} - mg\)
