Problem 83 A smooth semicircular wire track of radius R is fixed in a vertical plane One end of a massless spring of natural length 3R 4 is attached to the lowest point 0 of the wire track A small ring of mass m which can slide on the track is attached to the other end of the spring The ring is held stationary at point P such that the spring makes an angle 60 with the vertical The spring constant k mg R Consider the instant when the ring is released 1 Draw the free body diagram of the ring ii Determine the tangential acceleration of the ring and the normal reaction JEE 1996 C O 60 rictiona JEE 1997 wwwwwww
