Definition: Vertical Circular Motion

A special type of circular motion in which the body travels in a vertical plane is called vertical circular motion.

Maharashtra State Board: Class 11

Formula: Tension Relations

TB​ = 6mg + TA​

TD ​= 3mg + TA​

TC ​= TD​

Maharashtra State Board: Class 11

Formula: Equation at Each Position

Position Equation
Topmost Point A mg + TA = \[\frac {mv^2A}{r}\]
Bottommost Point B TB − mg = \[\frac {mv^2B}{r}\]
Middle Points C & D TC − TA = TD − TA = 3mg
Maharashtra State Board: Class 11

Formula: Minimum Velocities

Position Minimum Velocity
Topmost Point A vmin ⁡= \[\sqrt {rg}\]
Middle Points C & D vmin⁡ = \[\sqrt {3rg}\]
Bottommost Point B vmin⁡ = \[\sqrt {5rg}\]
Maharashtra State Board: Class 11

Key Points: Vertical Circular Motion

  • Tension — Minimum at topmost point A, intermediate at C & D, and maximum at bottommost point B.
  • Velocity — Minimum at topmost point A (rg) and maximum at bottommost point B (5rg).
  • Motion — Body accelerates from A to B (left/C side) and decelerates from B to A (right/D side).
