a rock attached to a string swings in a vertical circle then at the topmost point of its path,
a-2 forces act on it, resultant not=0
b- 1 force acts
c-2 forces act on it, resultant =0
d-3 forces act on it
 
Ans-(a)
 
My doubt is that there should be 3 forces acting on it- Tension, centrifugal and Mg.
But the answer given is (a).
Again a LOTS question.
