प्रश्न
A small heavy block is attached to the lower end of a light rod of length l which can be rotated about its clamped upper end. What minimum horizontal velocity should the block be given so that it moves in a complete vertical circle?
उत्तर
Let the velocity of the body at L is ν.
If the body is moving in a vertical plane then we need to find the minimum horizontal velocity which needs to be given to the body (velocity at L).
Also as point H is the highest point in the vertical plane so horizontal velocity at H will be zero.

\[\frac{1}{2}\text{m} \nu^2 = \text{mgh}\]
\[\frac{1}{2}\text{m} \nu^2 = \text{mg} \left( 2L \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow \nu = \sqrt{\left( 4 \text{gL} \right)} = 2 \sqrt{\text{gL}}\]

A block of mass m is attached to two unstretched springs of spring constants k1 and k2 as shown in the following figure. The block is displaced towards the right through a distance x and is released. Find the speed of the block as it passes through the mean position shown.
In the following figure shows two blocks A and B, each of mass of 320 g connected by a light string passing over a smooth light pulley. The horizontal surface on which the block Acan slide is smooth. Block A is attached to a spring of spring constant 40 N/m whose other end is fixed to a support 40 cm above the horizontal surface. Initially, the spring is vertical and unstretched when the system is released to move. Find the velocity of the block A at the instant it breaks off the surface below it. Take g = 10 m/s2.
Figure following shows a light rod of length l rigidly attached to a small heavy block at one end and a hook at the other end. The system is released from rest with the rod in a horizontal position.

What should be the minimum value of h so that the block moves in a complete circle about the ring?
