Two particles of mass $2m$ and $m$ are attached to a light string as shown. The complete system is rotated in a horizontal circle with a constant angular velocity $2\omega$ about an axis passing through point $O$ and perpendicular to the plane of the circle. Find the ratio $T_{OA} / T_{AB}$,where $T_{OA}$ and $T_{AB}$ are the tensions in strings $OA$ and $AB$ respectively.

In a conical pendulum,the bob of mass $m$ moves in a horizontal circle of radius $r$ with uniform speed $V$. The string of length $L$ describes a cone of semi-vertical angle $\theta$. The centripetal force acting on the bob is $(g = \text{acceleration due to gravity})$

$A$ small $100 \ g$ sleeve $B$ can slide on a smooth,circular and rigid wire frame $A$ of radius $5 \ m$ placed in a vertical plane. The wire frame is rotating about its vertical diameter at $2 \ rad/s$. When the sleeve is brought to a particular angular position $\theta$ (measured from the vertical downward axis) other than the bottom and the top of the ring,the sleeve will not slide on the wire frame. Calculate the normal force $N$ (in Newtons) of interaction between the sleeve and the wire frame at this position.
