Question

for a uniform circular motion the radial and linear velocities are 5 rad/s and 10 m/s respectively. find the radius of the circular path.

please give detailed answer​

Answer 1

Answer : please mark me as brainliest

Explanation:If a particle is moving in a circle, it must have some acceleration acting towards the centre which is making it move around the centre. Since this acceleration is perpendicular to the velocity of a particle at every instant, it is only changing the direction of velocity and not magnitude and that’s why the motion is uniform circular motion. We call this acceleration centripetal acceleration (or radial acceleration), and the force acting towards the centre is called centripetal force.

In the case of uniform circular motion, the acceleration is:

ar = v2r = ω2r

If the mass of the particle is m, we can say from the second law of motion that:

F = ma

mv2r= mω2r

This is not a special force, actually force like tension or friction may be a cause of origination of centripetal force. When the vehicles turn on the roads, it is the frictional force between tyres and ground which provides the required centripetal force for turning.

So if a particle is moving in a uniform circular motion:

1) Its speed is constant

2) Velocity is changing at every instant

3) There is no tangential acceleration

4) Radial (centripetal) acceleration = ω2r

5) v=ωr

In case of non-uniform circular motion, there is some tangential acceleration due to which the speed of particle increases or decreases. The resultant acceleration is the vector sum of radial acceleration and tangential acceleration.
