Question
Assertion: Tension in the string remains same irrespective of the position of bob in oscillation. Reason: Tension is maximum at mean position.(A) $\mathrm{A}$(B) $\mathrm{B}$(C) $\mathrm{C}$(D) D
Step 1
When the bob is at the mean position, it is momentarily at rest and the tension in the string is equal to the gravitational force acting on the bob (T = mg). Show more…

Assertion: A heavy mass is hanging from a string in equilibrium without breaking it. When this same mass is set into oscillation, then string can break. Reason: In above assertion, tension in string can never be greater than weight of hanging mass. (A) $\mathrm{A}$ (B) $\mathrm{B}$ (C) $\mathrm{C}$ (D) D
A particle is moving in a vertical circle. The tensions in the string when passing through two positions at angles $30^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ from vertical (lowest position) are $T_{1}$ and $T_{2}$ respectively then: (a) $\quad T_{1}=T_{2}$ (b) $T_{2}>T_{1}$(c) $T_{1}>T_{2}$ (d) tension in the string always remains the same

Motion in a Plane
The pendulum bob $B$ has a mass $m$ and is released from rest when $\theta=0^{\circ} .$ Determine the tension in string $B C$ immediately afterwards, and also at the instant the bob reaches the arbitrary position $\theta$.
