A 1.8kg pendulum bob completes a vertical circle of radius 2m. What is the speed at the top? (Take g\=10m/s2)

At top, minimum speed vC=gL=10×2=20≈4.47m/s. As per NCERT Chapter 3, equations v=u+at, s=ut+½at², v²=u²+2as describe uniformly accelerated motion. Applying correct signs and units gives 4 m/s as the result, so option A is correct.

A 1.2kg pendulum bob completes a vertical circle of radius 1.6m. What is the speed at the top? (Take g\=10m/s2)

At top, minimum speed vC=gL=10×1.6=16=4m/s. As per NCERT Chapter 3, equations v=u+at, s=ut+½at², v²=u²+2as describe uniformly accelerated motion. Applying correct signs and units gives 4 m/s as the result, so option A is correct.
