A pendulum bob of mass 100g hangs by a thread l=2m.It is pulled aside by 60° and released.Find the tension when bob is at lowest point. |

Answer» When Bob is at the lowest point, tension(T) provides the net centripetal force along with Mg: Mgl(1-cos60°)=(1/2)Mv^2 So v^2=gl So T-mgcos60°=mv^2/l T=1.5N |
