Paragraph for Question No. 52 and 53
In Poe's famous horror tale, The Pit and the Pendulum, the hero, who finds himself strapped flat to a
horizontal surface, notices an almost motionless pendulum hanging from the ceiling 12m above him.
After some time, he also realizes that the pendulum is descending very slowly toward him. According to
the story, the amplitude of the swing and the speed at the lowest point in each swing is increasing. What
is swinging is in fact a small razor-edged knife of steel which will eventually sweep across the man's
heart.Actually the knife is gradually being lowered by the villain by a small hole in the ceiling.
Let's analyze this terrifying situation more closely to see if Poe's spell-binding description actually
makes physical sense. To do this, we must make some assumptions which will not affect our final
conclusion. The blade of mass m is suspended on the end of a massless cable of length l0 and is executing
simple harmonic motion. Assume that the blade is also slowly lowered in very small increments of Dl
which occur only when it goes through its lowest position in each swing, at q = 0°, where q is the
angular position with respect to the vertical.

to the point A at the same level as the center O of the cylinder. OA and AB lie in a plane perpendicular
to the axis of the cylinder. In the equilibrium position, the spring is at its natural length (Assuming that
spring stays almost vertical during entire motion and elongation in spring is same as displacement of
centre of sphere).
