A particle P is sliding down a frictionless hemispherical bowl. It passes the point A at `t=0`. At this instant of time, the horizontal component of its velocity is v. A bead Q of the same mass as P is ejected from A at `t=0` along the horizontal string AB, with the speed v. Friction between the bead and the string may be neglected. Let `t_P` and `t_Q` be the respective times taken by P and Q to reach the point B. Then:
