A ball of mass \(2 \mathrm{~g}\) released from the top of an inclined plane describes a circular motion of radius \(20 \mathrm{~cm}\) in the vertical plane upon reaching the bottom. The minimum height of the inclined plane is

  1. A \(20 \mathrm{~cm}\)
  2. B \(10 \mathrm{~cm}\)
  3. C \(50 \mathrm{~cm}\)
  4. D \(60 \mathrm{~cm}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(50 \mathrm{~cm}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The motion of ball is as shown below At bottom of incline (at \(P\) ) the potential energy of ball is converted into kinetic energy i.e., \(\begin{aligned} & \frac{1}{2} m v^2=m g h \\ & \Rightarrow \quad v=\sqrt{2 g h} \\ & \end{aligned}\) To complete the vertical circle, the…
