Question

A water bucket of mass 'm' is revolved in a vertical circle with the help of a rope of length 'r'. If the velocity of the bucket at the lowest point is 7gr . Then the velocity and tension in the rope at the highest point are:
  1. 3gr,2mg
  2. 2gr,mg
  3. gr,mg
  4. Zero , Zero

A
Zero , Zero
B
3gr,2mg
C
2gr,mg
D
gr,mg
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Vb=7gr
Work Energy Theorem applied between top and bottom.
mg(2R)=12m(Vb)212m(VT)2
2mgr=72mgr12m(VT)2
VT=3gr

At top point:
T=mV2Trmg
=m3grrmg
=2mg
