    A weightless thread can bear tension upto 37 N. A stone of mass 500 g is tied to it and revolved in a circular path of radius 4 m in a vertical plane. If \[g=10\,m{{s}^{-2}},\]then the maximum angular velocity of the stone will be

    A)  \[2\text{ }rad\,{{s}^{-1}}\]     

    B)                         \[4\,rad\,{{s}^{-1}}\]    

    C)         \[8\,rad\,{{s}^{-1}}\]                    

    D)         \[16\,rad\,{{s}^{-1}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Maximum tension in the thread is given by \[{{T}_{\max }}=mg+\frac{m{{v}^{2}}}{r}\] or            \[{{T}_{\max }}=mg+mr{{\omega }^{2}}\]             \[(\because \,v=r\omega )\] or            \[{{\omega }^{2}}=\frac{{{T}_{\max }}-mg}{mr}\] Given, \[{{T}_{\max }}=37\,N,\,m=500g=0.5\,kg,\,g=10\,m{{s}^{-2}},\] \[r=4\,m\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{\omega }^{2}}=\frac{37-0.5\times 10}{0.5\times 4}=\frac{37-5}{2}\] or            \[{{\omega }^{2}}=16\] or \[\omega =4\,rad\,{{s}^{-1}}\]
