a circular wheel can rotate about its central axis which is vertical. from a point on the rim hangs a simple pendulum. When the wheel is caused to rotate uniformly, the angle of inclination of the pendulum to the vertical is theta nod. If the radius of the wheel is R and length of pendulum is L, the rotatory frequency of the wheel is​

Dear Student,



This simple pendulum will act as a conical pendulum as the wheel rotates.The bob of the pendulum will perform circular motion.r=R+Lsinθ = radius of rotaion of bob.m- mass of bob (consideration).mg - downwar force on bob due to mass.T- tension in string.w-angular speed of wheel.T can be resolved in horizontal and vertical component as in diagram.angular speed of wheel is same as the speed of bob.Tcosθ=mg Tsinθ=mrw2divde above equation we get,TcosθTsinθ=mgmrw2cotθ=grw2cotθ=g(R+Lsinθ).w2w =gtanθ(R+Lsinθ).
Regards.
