[Kerala (Engg.) 2001]
Options:
A) $ mg $ B)$ m(g+\pi ,n,r^{2}) $ C) $ m(g+\pi ,n,r) $ D)$ m{g+({{\pi }^{2}},n^{2},r)/900} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
$ T=mg+m{{\omega }^{2}}r=m{g+4{{\pi }^{2}}n^{2}r} $
$ =m{ g+( 4{{\pi }^{2}}{{( \frac{n}{60} )}^{2}}r ) }=m{ g+( \frac{{{\pi }^{2}}n^{2}r}{900} ) } $
