Question: Answered & Verified by Expert
A uniform circular ring of mass m and radius R is placed freely on a horizontal smooth surface as shown in figure. A particle of mass m is connected to the circumference of the ring with a massless string. The particle is imparted velocity v0 perpendicular to length of string as shown. If T is tension in the string just after the particle imparted velocity, then

The correct answer is: 2Tm
Calculate acceleration of each in ground frame.

 T=mac



T.R=mR2α

T=mRα 

aP=(aC+αR)

T=macac=αR

ap=2Tm
