At which position in vertical circular motion is the tension in the string minimum?

At which position in vertical circular motion is the tension in the string minimum? Correct Answer At the highest position

When the body is at the highest point of its motion. This is because at the highest point the tension = centrifugal force – weight. This is the minimum value for tension throughout the motion.
