A simple pendulum is suspended from the ceiling of a car taking a turn of radius 10 m at a speed of 36 km/h. Find the angle made by he string of the pendulum with the vertical if this angle does not change during the turn. Take g = 10 m/s2.
उत्तर
Speed of the car = v = 36 km/hr = 10 m/s
Acceleration due to gravity = g = 10 m/s2
Let T be the tension in the string when the pendulum makes an angle θ with the vertical.
From the figure, we get :
\[\text{T}\sin\theta = \frac{\text{mv}^2}{r} . . . (\text{i})\]
\[T\cos\theta = \text{mg . . . (ii)}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta} = \frac{\text{mv}^2}{\text{rmg}}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \tan\theta = \frac{\text{v}^2}{\text{rg}}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \theta = \tan^{- 1} \left( \frac{\text{v}^2}{\text{rg}} \right)\]
\[ = \tan^{- 1} \left[ \frac{100}{(10 \times 10)} \right]\]
\[ = \tan^{- 1} (1)\]
\[ \Rightarrow \theta= 45^\circ\]

You may have seen in a circus a motorcyclist driving in vertical loops inside a ‘death-well’ (a hollow spherical chamber with holes, so the spectators can watch from outside). Explain clearly why the motorcyclist does not drop down when he is at the uppermost point, with no support from below. What is the minimum speed required at the uppermost position to perform a vertical loop if the radius of the chamber is 25 m?
