answer the following questions correct plzzzzzzzzz heple mi
Answers
centripetal acceleration = v^2 / R = 20^2 / 100 = 400/100 = 4 m/s^2
Resultant acceleration = √(3^2 + 4^2) = √25 = 5 m/s^2
Acceleration = 5 m/s^2
Given Values:
Tangential speed = 20 m/s
Radius of circular track = 100 m
Tangential acceleration = 3 m/s²
Now,
Centripetal acceleration = (Tangential speed)² / Radius
= 20² / 100
= 400 / 100
= 4 m/s²
The resultant total acceleration is calculated by vector sum formula:
total acceleration² = (centripetal acceleration)² + (tangential acceleration)² + 2 * (centripetal acceleration) * (tangential acceleration) * cos Θ
But, here as the car in moving in a circular motion, the tangential acceleration is perpendicular to centripetal acceleration.
∴ cos Θ = cos 90 = 0
∴ total acceleration² = (centripetal acceleration)² + (tangential acceleration)² + 2 * (centripetal acceleration) * (tangential acceleration) * 0
= (centripetal acceleration)² + (tangential acceleration)² + 0
= (centripetal acceleration)² + (tangential acceleration)²
= 4² + 3²
= 16 + 9
= 25
∴ total acceleration = √25
= 5 m/s²
So, among the given options, the correct answer is the option number 3, i.e.; 5 m/s²
