JEE Main 2024 — 4 April, Shift 2 — Question 40

A body of m kgm \mathrm{~kg} slides from rest along the curve of vertical circle from point A to B in friction less path. The velocity of the

body at BB is : (given, R=14 m, g=10 m/s2\mathrm{R}=14 \mathrm{~m}, \mathrm{~g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} and 2=1.4\sqrt{2}=1.4 )

  1. Option A:

    19.8 m/s19.8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}

  2. Option B:

    21.9 m/s21.9 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}

    Correct
  3. Option C:

    16.7 m/s16.7 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}

  4. Option D:

    10.6 m/s10.6 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}

Answer: B

Step-by-step solution

Apply W.E.T. from A to B

⇒Wmg=KB−KA\Rightarrow \mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{mg}}=\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{B}}-\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{A}} ⇒mg×(R2+R)=12mvB2−0{vA=0\Rightarrow \mathrm{mg} \times\left(\frac{\mathrm{R}}{\sqrt{2}}+\mathrm{R}\right)=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}_{\mathrm{B}}^{2}-0\left\{\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{A}}=0\right. rest }\}

⇒mgR⁡(2+1)2=12mv⁡B2\Rightarrow \operatorname{mgR} \frac{(\sqrt{2}+1)}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{1}{2} \operatorname{mv}_{\mathrm{B}}^{2} ⇒gR⁡2(2+1)2=vB\Rightarrow \sqrt{\operatorname{gR} \frac{2(\sqrt{2}+1)}{\sqrt{2}}}=\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{B}} ⇒10×14×2(2.4)1.4=vB\Rightarrow \sqrt{\frac{10 \times 14 \times 2(2.4)}{1.4}}=\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{B}} ⇒21.9=vB\Rightarrow 21.9=\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{B}}
