A pendulum consists of a wooden bob of mass m and length ' '. A bullet of mass m1 is fired towards the pendulum with a speed v1. The bullet emerges out of the bob with a speed v1/ 3 , and the bob just completes motion along a vertical circle. Then v1is

a
mm15gℓ
b
32mm15gℓ
c
23m1m5gℓ
d
m1mgℓ

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Using conservation of momentum,m1v1+0=m1v13+mv⇒m1v1−m1v13=mv​(v=5gl to complete motion along vertical circle) ​⇒2 m1v13=mv⇒v=23m1v1 m or v1=32mm15gl
