Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
The particle is moving in circular path From the figure, $ mg=R\sin \theta $ ?(i) $ \ \frac{mv^{2}}{r}=R\cos \theta $ ?(ii) From equation (i) and (ii) we get $ \tan \theta =\frac{rg}{v^{2}} $ but $ \tan \theta =\frac{r}{h} $ $ h=\frac{v^{2}}{g}=\frac{{{(0.5)}^{2}}}{10}=0.025m=2.5,cm $
