5 A \(\mathbf { p }\) rticle \(P \mathbf { 6 }\) mass \(m\) is attach d to e. a lig in k en ib e strig leg h \(a\). Tb o b re. th strig s attach d or fiƦ \(\Phi \quad n O\).

Sw that \(\omega ^ { 2 } = \frac { 2 g } { a }\).
  2. Th \(\mathbf { p }\) rticle w has at restad stan e \(a\) rtically b low \(O\). It isth \(\mathrm { np } \dot { \mathrm { p } }\) ected b izb ally so th t it \(\mathbf { b } \mathbf { g }\) s to m in a rtical circle with cen re \(O\). Wh n th strig maks an ag e \(\boldsymbol { \theta }\), with th d \(\mathbb { w }\) ard rtical th \(\mathbf { g } O\), th ang arse \(\operatorname { d } P\) is \(\sqrt { \frac { 2 g } { a } }\). Tb strig first \(\mathbf { g }\) s slack when \(O P\) mak s ara g e \(\theta\) with b ard rtical th ob \(O\). Fid b le 6 co \(\theta\).
