Work Power and Energy 3 Question 4

4. The magnitude of the normal reaction that acts on the block at the point Q is

(a) 7.5N

(b) 8.6N

(c) 11.5N

(d) 22.5N

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 4. (a)

Solution:

  1. At point Q, component of weight along PQ (radially outwards) is mgcos60 or mg2.

Normal reaction is radially inwards

Nmg2=mv2R or N=mg2+mv2R=1×102+1×(10)240=7.5N
