The figure below shows a small mass connected to a string,which is attached to a vertical post. If the ball is released when the string is horizontal as shown below,the magnitude of the total acceleration (including radial and tangential) of the mass as a function of the angle $\theta$ is

  • A
    $g \sin \theta$
  • B
    $g \sqrt{3 \cos^2 \theta + 1}$
  • C
    $g \cos \theta$
  • D
    $g \sqrt{3 \sin^2 \theta + 1}$

$A$ train of mass $3 \times 10^6 \ kg$ is accelerated by an engine such that its velocity increases from $5 \ m/s$ to $25 \ m/s$ in $5 \ minutes$. The power of the engine is ........ $MW$.

$A$ particle $P$ is sliding down a frictionless hemispherical bowl. It passes the point $A$ at $t = 0$. At this instant of time, the horizontal component of its velocity is $v$. $A$ bead $Q$ of the same mass as $P$ is ejected from $A$ at $t = 0$ along the horizontal string $AB$ (see figure) with the speed $v$. Friction between the bead and the string may be neglected. Let ${t_P}$ and ${t_Q}$ be the respective time taken by $P$ and $Q$ to reach the point $B$. Then
