According to question, we have
Let the tension at point $$A$$ be $${T_A}.$$ So, from Newton’s second law $${T_A} - mg = \frac{{mv_c^2}}{R}$$
Energy at point $$A = \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2\,......\left( {\text{i}} \right)$$
Energy at point $$C$$ is $$\frac{1}{2}mv_c^2 + mg \times 2R\,......\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right)$$
Applying Newton's 2nd law at point $$C$$
$${T_c} + mg = \frac{{mv_c^2}}{R}$$
To complete the loop $${T_c} \geqslant 0$$
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{So,}}\,\,mg = \frac{{mv_c^2}}{R} \cr
& \Rightarrow {v_c} = \sqrt {gR} \,......\left( {{\text{iii}}} \right) \cr} $$
From Eqs. (i) and (ii) by conservation of energy
$$\eqalign{
& \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv_c^2 + 2mgR \cr
& \Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 = \frac{1}{2}mgR + 2mgR \times 2\,\left( {\because {v_C} = \sqrt {gR} } \right) \cr
& \Rightarrow v_0^2 = gR + 4gR \cr
& \Rightarrow {v_0} = \sqrt {5gR} \cr} $$

The potential energy of a particle in a force field is $$U = \frac{A}{{{r^2}}} - \frac{B}{r},$$ where $$A$$ and $$B$$ are positive constants and $$r$$ is the distance of particle from the centre of the field. For stable equilibrium, the distance of the particle is
Given, the potential energy of a particle in a force field, $$U = \frac{A}{{{r^2}}} - \frac{B}{{{r^1}}}$$
For stable equilibrium, $$F = - \frac{{dU}}{{dr}} = 0$$
$$\eqalign{
& = \frac{{dU}}{{dr}} = - 2A{r^{ - 3}} + B{r^{ - 2}} \cr
& 0 = - \frac{{2A}}{{{r^3}}} + \frac{B}{{{r^2}}}\,\,\left( {{\text{As}}\,\,\frac{{ - dU}}{{dr}} = 0} \right) \cr
& {\text{or}}\,\,\frac{{2A}}{r} = B \cr} $$
The distance of particle from the centre of the field $$r = \frac{{2A}}{B}$$

A ring of mass $$m$$ can slide over a smooth vertical rod as shown in figure. The ring is connected to a spring of force constant $$k = 4\,mg/R,$$ where $$2R$$ is the natural length of the spring. The other end of spring is fixed to the ground at a horizontal distance $$2R$$ from the base of the rod. If the mass is released at a height $$1.5\,R,$$ then the velocity of the ring as it reaches the ground is

A particle describe a horizontal circle of radius $$0.5\,m$$ with uniform speed. The centripetal force acting is $$10\,N.$$ The work done in describing a semicircle is
125.
$$300\,J$$ of work is done in sliding a $$2\,kg$$ block up an inclined plane of height $$10\,m.$$ Taking $$g = 10\,m/{s^2},$$ work done against friction is
Work done against gravity $$ = mg\sin \theta \times d$$
$$ = 2 \times 10 \times 10 = 200\,J\left( {d\sin \theta = 10} \right)$$
Actual work done $$= 300\,J$$
Work done against friction $$ = 300 - 200 = 100\,J$$

A uniform cable of mass $$'M ’$$ and length $$'L ’$$ is placed on a horizontal surface such that its $${\left( {\frac{1}{n}} \right)^{th}}$$ part is hanging below the edge of the surface. To lift the hanging part of the cable upto the surface, the work done should be:
Length of hanging part $$ = \frac{L}{n}$$
Mass of hanging part $$ = \frac{M}{n}$$
Weight of hanging part $$ = \frac{Mg}{n}$$
Let ‘C’ be the centre of mass of the hanging part.
The hanging part can be assumed to be a particle of weight $$\frac{Mg}{n}$$ at a distance $$\frac{L}{n}$$ below the table top. The work done in lifting it to the table top is equal to increase in its potential energy.
$$\eqalign{
& \therefore W = \left( {\frac{{Mg}}{n}} \right)\,\,\left( {\frac{L}{n}} \right) \cr
& \therefore W = \frac{{MgL}}{{{n^2}}} \cr} $$

Two bodies with kinetic energies in the ratio $$4:1$$ are moving with equal linear momentum. The ratio of their masses is
As we know that, relation between kinetic energy and momentum is given by
$$KE = \frac{{{p^2}}}{{2m}}$$
If $${p_1} = {p_2}$$ for two bodies
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{so,}}\,\,K{E_1} \propto \frac{1}{{{m_1}}} \cr
& {\text{and}}\,\,K{E_2} \propto \frac{1}{{{m_2}}} \cr} $$
Therefore, ratio of two masses is given by
$$\frac{{{m_1}}}{{{m_2}}} = \frac{{K{E_2}}}{{K{E_1}}} = \frac{1}{4}\,\,\,\left[ {\because \frac{{K{E_1}}}{{K{E_2}}} = \frac{4}{1}} \right]$$

A man starts walking from a point on the surface of earth (assumed smooth) and reaches diagonally opposite point.
What is the work done by him?
As surface is smooth so work done against friction is zero. Also the displacement and force of gravity are perpendicular so work done against gravity is zero.

A body starts from rest and acquires a velocity $$V$$ in time $$T.$$ The work done on the body in time $$t$$ will be proportional to
Work done on the body is gain in the kinetic energy. Acceleration of the body is $$a = \frac{V}{T}.$$
Velocity acquired in time $$t$$ is $$v = at = \frac{V}{T}t$$
$$K.E.$$ acquired $$ \propto {v^2}.$$ That is work done $$ \propto \frac{{{V^2}{t^2}}}{{{T^2}}}$$

A uniform force of $$\left( {3\hat i + \hat j} \right)N$$ acts on a
particle of mass $$2\,kg.$$ Hence, the particle is displaced from position $$\left( {2\hat i + \hat k} \right)m$$ to position $$\left( {4\hat i + 3\hat j - \hat k} \right)m.$$ The work done by the force on the particle is
