JEE Main Physics question
A mass of M kg is suspended by a weightless string. The horizontal force that is required to displace it until the string makes an angle of 45° with the initial vertical direction is [AIEEE 2006]
Answer: (C)
Solution
Using the work-energy theorem for the horizontal force F doing work F·l sinθ (where l is the string length) as the bob rises by l(1−cosθ):
