At every instant of its motion, the particle is acted upon by its weight mg and the tension T in the string. The particle may not complete the circle if the string slackens before the particle reaches the top. This requires that the particle must have some minimum speed. —= Top: KE =4mo} T 7 PE = mg(2r) maf TEN -{C_— Midway : KE =4 mo} PE = mgr he — Bottom : KE =4 mv; a e—0 “8 | ns (mark) Vertical circular motion (schematic) PHYSICS 3SS be the speed of the particle and T; (i) At the top (point A): Let v1 both 7; and weight mg the tension in the string at the top.
