JEE Main Physics question
A body is being revolved in a vertical circle of radius with the critical (minimum) speed needed to just complete the circle. The string breaks when the body is exactly at the highest point. The horizontal distance covered by the body, measured from the point directly below where the string broke, before it lands on the ground at the level of the lowest point of the circle, is
Answer: (A)
Solution
At the highest point the critical speed is , directed horizontally. After the string breaks the body undergoes projectile
