A stone of mass \(16\ \text{kg}\) is attached to a string \(144\ \text{m}\) long and is whirled in a horizontal circle. The maximum tension the string can withstand is \(16\) Newton. The maximum velocity of revolution that can be given to the stone without breaking it will be:

1. \(20\ \text{ms}^{–1}\)
2. \(16\ \text{ms}^{–1}\)
3. \(14\ \text{ms}^{–1}\)
4. \(12\ \text{ms}^{–1}\)

A point mass \(m\) is suspended from a light thread of length \(l,\) fixed at \(O\), and is whirled in a horizontal circle at a constant speed as shown. From your point of view, stationary with respect to the mass, the forces on the mass are:

1.		2.
3.		4.

If a cyclist moving at a speed of \(4.9\ \text{m/s}\) on a level road can take a sharp circular turn of radius \(4\ \text{m}\), then the coefficient of friction between the cycle tyres and the road is:

1. \( 0.41\)
2. \(0.51\)
3.\( 0.61\)
4. \(0.71\)

Three identical particles are joined together by a thread as shown in the given figure. All three particles are moving in horizontal circles centred at \(O\). If the velocity of the outermost particle is \(v_0\), then the ratio of tensions in the three sections of the string is:

1. \(3 : 5 : 7\)
2. \(3 : 4 : 5\)
3. \(7 : 11 : 6\)
4. \(3 : 5 : 6\)

A coin, placed on a rotating turntable, slips when it is placed at a distance of \(9\ \text{cm}\) from the centre. If the angular velocity of the turntable is tripled, it will just slip if its distance from the centre is:

1. \(27\ \text{cm}\)
2. \(9\ \text{cm}\)
3. \(3\ \text{cm}\)
4. \(1\ \text{cm}\)

A car is moving in a circular horizontal track of radius \(10~\text{m}\) with a constant speed of \(10~\text{m/s}\). A plumb bob is suspended from the roof of the car by a light rigid rod of length \(1.00~\text{m}\). The angle formed by the rod with respect to the vertical is:

A mass of \(1\ \text{kg}\) is suspended by a string \(A\). Another string \(C\) is connected to its lower end as shown in the given figure. If a sudden jerk is given to \(C\), then:

1. The portion \(AB\) of the string will break
2. The portion \(BC\) of the string will break
3. None of the strings will break
4. The mass will start rotating

A coin is dropped in a lift. It takes time \(t_1\) to reach the floor when the lift is stationary. It takes time \(t_2\) when the lift is moving up with constant acceleration. Then:
1. \(t_1 > t_2\)
2. \(t_1 < t_2\)
3. \(t_1 = t_2\)
4. \(t_1 >> t_2\)

If the tension in the cable of \(1000~\text{kg}\) elevator is \(1000~\text{kg}\) weight, the elevator:

1. is accelerating upwards.

2. is accelerating downwards.

3. may be at rest or accelerating.

4. may be at rest or in uniform motion.
