A pendulum hangs from the ceiling of a jeep moving with a speed v along a circle of radius R. Find the angle with the vertical made by the pendulum.

A

0

B

tan-1(v2/Rg)

C

tan-1(Rg/v2)

D

None of these

Answer

tan-1(v2/Rg)

Explanation

Solution

ar = v2/R tanθ = v2Rg=v2Rg\frac{\frac{v^{2}}{R}}{g} = \frac{v^{2}}{Rg}
