A pendulum has length of $0.4 \mathrm{~m}$ and maximum speed $4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$. When the length…
- $2 \sqrt{2} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$
- $\sqrt{3} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$
- $2 \sqrt{5} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$
- $2 \sqrt{3} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$
Solution
$h=L-L \cos 0=L(1-\cos \theta)$
$=0.4\left(1-\cos 60^{\circ}\right)$
$=0.4\left(1-\frac{1}{2}\right)$
$=0.4 \times \frac{1}{2}$
$=0.2$
$\frac{1}{2} m v_{1}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} m v_{2}^{2}+m g h$
$v_{1}^{2}=v_{2}^{2}+2 g h$
$\therefore v_{2}^{2}=v_{1}^{2}-2 g h$
$=(4)^{2}-2 \times 10 \times 0.2$
$=16-4=12$
$\therefore v_{2}=\sqrt{12}=2 \sqrt{3} m / s$Asked in: MHT CET 2020 (12 Oct Shift 1)
