A mass of is suspended vertically by a rope from the roof. When a horizontal force is applied on the rope at some point, the rope deviated at an angle of at the roof point. If the suspended mass is at equilibrium, the magnitude of the force applied is


Important Questions on Laws of Motion


A smooth wire is bent into a vertical circle of a radius . A bead can slide smoothly on the wire. The circle is rotated about the vertical diameter as the axis with speed as shown in the figure. The bead is at rest with respect to the circular ring in the position shown. Then, is equal to,

A disc of radius has a light pole fixed perpendicular to the disc at the circumference which in turn has a pendulum of length attached to its other end as shown in the figure. The disc is rotated with a constant angular velocity . The string makes an angle with the rod. Then, the angular velocity of the disc is,

Two different masses are connected to two strings, as shown in the figure. Both masses rotate about a central fixed point with angular velocity , on a smooth horizontal plane. The ratio of tensions in the strings is
