  1. A car is moving in a circular horizontal track of radius 10 m with a constant speed of 10 m/s. A bob is suspended from the roof of the car by a light wire of length 1.0 m. The angle made by the wire with the vertical is
    1. π
      3
    2. π
      6
    3. π
      4

Correct Option: D

Given; speed = 10 m/s; radius r = 10 m
Angle made by the wire with the vertical

tanθ =
=
10²
= 1
rg10 × 10

⇒ θ = 45° =
π
