Length of a simple pendulum is $1 \,m$. When its bob is at its lowest point its velocity is $7 \,ms^{-1}$. If the bob leaves its circular path at a height $h$ above the centre of the circle, then the value of $h$ is $(g=10 \,ms^{-2})$. (in $\,m$)

In the given figure,for an initial velocity $u = u_0/3$,find the height from the ground at which the block leaves the hemisphere,where $u_0 = \sqrt{gr}$.

The string of a pendulum of length $L$ is displaced through $90^{\circ}$ from the vertical and released. The maximum tension the string must withstand as the pendulum passes through the mean position is ($m =$ mass of the pendulum,$g =$ acceleration due to gravity).
