$A$ small ball $B$ of mass $m$ is suspended with a light inelastic string of length $L$ from a block $A$ of the same mass $m$,which can move on a smooth horizontal surface as shown in the figure. The ball is displaced by an angle $\theta$ from the equilibrium position and then released. The tension in the string when it is vertical is:

  • A
    $mg$
  • B
    $mg(2 - \cos \theta)$
  • C
    $mg(3 - 2 \cos \theta)$
  • D
    None of these

The figure shows an arrangement of a rod of length $l$ and mass $M$ and a bead of mass $m$ attached to a weightless string passing over a frictionless pulley. At $t = 0$,the bead is level with the lower end of the rod. The bead slides down the string with considerable friction and is opposite to the other end of the rod after $T$ seconds. Assuming friction between the bead and the string to be constant throughout,the frictional force is:
