Q.
A bob of mass 10kg is attached to wire 0.3 long. Its breaking stress is 4.8×107Nm2. The area of cross section of the wire is 10−6m2. The maximum angular velocity with which it can be rotated in a horizontal circle

Solution:
Using the relation
Force =breaking stress × area =(4.8×107)(10−6)=48N ...(1)
Using the relation F=Mrω2 ...(2) Mrω2=48 10×0.3×ω2=48 ω2=10×0⋅348=16
so ω2=16 ω=4rad/sec
