A block is gently pushed from rest at and it slides down along the fixed smooth circular surface. If the attached spring has a force constant , then what is the unstretched length of the spring so that it does not allow the block to leave the surface until the angle with the vertical is ?




Important Questions on Circular Motion



A car moves at a constant speed on a road as shown in the figure. The normal force by the road on the car are and when it is at the points and , respectively. Then

A section of a fixed smooth circular track of radius in vertical plane is shown in the figure. A block is released from the position and leaves the track at . The radius of curvature of its trajectory when it just leaves the track at is

A cube of mass starts at rest from point at a height , where is the radius of the circular track. The cube slides down the frictionless track and around the loop. The force which the track exerts on the cube at point is
