What is the minimum velocity with which a body of mass \(m\) must enter a vertical loop of radius \(R\) so that it can complete the loop \(?\)

  1. A \(\sqrt {2gR} \)
  2. B \(\;\sqrt {5gR} \)
  3. C \(\;\sqrt {3gR} \)
  4. D \(\;\sqrt {gR} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\;\sqrt {5gR} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let the tension at point \(A\) be \(T_{A} .\) So, from Newton's second law \(T_{A}-m g=\frac{m v_{c}^{2}}{R}\)
Energy at point \(A=\frac{1}{2} m v_{0}^{2}\)   \(...(i)\)
