A body of mass m kg is rotating in a vertical circle at the end of a string of length r metre. The difference in the kinetic energy at the top and the bottom of the circle is

a
mg / r
b
2 mg / r
c
2 mgr
d
mgr

detailed solution

Correct option is C

K.E. at top  = 12mv2 K.E. at the bottom = 12mu2Conserving mechanical  energy , 12mu2 = 12mv2 +mg2r ⇒12mu2 - 12mv2 = 2mgr
