In non uniform circular motion If speed of fan is
increassing is
Answers
Answer:
Non circular motion means the speed and the velocity of the body both are changing ... hence... speed of fan gets increase and decrease...
Hence the statement is true
Explanation:
Overview of Non-Uniform Circular Motion
Non-uniform circular motion denotes a change in the speed of a particle moving along a circular path.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Key Points
In non- uniform circular motion, the size of the velocity vector (speed) changes, denoting change in the magnitude of velocity.
The change in speed has implications for radial ( centripetal ) acceleration. There are two possibilities: 1) the radius of the circle is constant; or 2) the radial (centripetal) force is constant.
In either case, the angular velocity in non-uniform circular motion is not constant, as
ω
=
v
r
, and
v
varies.
Key Terms
radial: Moving along a radius.
centripetal: Directed or moving towards a center.
What do we mean by non-uniform circular motion? The answer lies in the definition of uniform circular motion, which is a circular motion with constant speed. It follows then that non-uniform circular motion denotes a change in the speed of the particle moving along the circular path. Note especially the change in the velocity vector sizes, denoting change in the magnitude of velocity.

The change in direction is accounted by radial acceleration ( centripetal acceleration ), which is given by following relation:

r
. The change in speed has implications for radial (centripetal) acceleration. There are two possibilities:
1: The radius of circle is constant (like in the motion along a circular rail or motor track). A change in
v
will change the magnitude of radial acceleration. This means that the centripetal acceleration is not constant, as is the case with uniform circular motion. The greater the speed, the greater the radial acceleration. A particle moving at higher speed will need a greater radial force to change direction and vice-versa when the radius of the circular path is constant.
2: The radial (centripetal) force is constant (like a satellite rotating about the earth under the influence of a constant force of gravity). The circular motion adjusts its radius in response to changes in speed. This means that the radius of the circular path is variable, unlike the case of uniform circular motion. In any eventuality, the equation of centripetal acceleration in terms of “speed” and “radius” must be satisfied. The important thing to note here is that, although change in speed of the particle affects radial acceleration, the change in speed is not affected by radial or centripetal force. We need a tangential force to affect the change in the magnitude of a tangential velocity. The corresponding acceleration is called tangential acceleration.
