A ring of mass m and radius R rests in equilibrium on a smooth cone of semi-vertical angle 45^(@) as shown. The radius of the cone is 2R. the radius of circular crosssection of the ring is r(r lt lt R). What will be the tension in the ring?

Answer»

`(MG)/(2sqrt(2)PI)`
`(mg)/(2PI)`
`(mg)/(sqrt(2)pi)`
`(sqrt(2)mg)/(pi)`

Solution :FBD of smallsection of ringsubtendingangle `d theta` at centre of ring is as shown.

`(N)/(sqrt(2))=T d theta, (N)/(sqrt(2))=(m d theta)/(2pi)G`
`rArr T=(mg)/(2pi)`
