Question

A simple pendulum is oscillating with an angular amplitude 60. The ratio of tensions in the string when the bob reaches the mean position and the extreme position respectively is :
  1. 2:1
  2. 1:3
  3. 3:1
  4. 4:1

A
3:1
B
4:1
C
2:1
D
1:3
Solution
Verified by Toppr

At A
TA=mgcos600
TA=mg2
By Work Energy Theorem from A to B
mgR(1cos600)=12mV2
mgR2=12mV2
V=Rg

At B
TBmg=mV2R
TB=mg+mg=2mg
TBTA=2mgmg/2=4
