MCQ
A particle moves with constant angular velocity in circular path of certain radius and is acted upon by a certain centripetal force $F$. If the angular velocity is doubled, keeping radius the same, the new force will be
  • A
    $2F$
  • B
    ${F^2}$
  • $4F$
  • D
    $F/2$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$4F$
c
(c) $F = m{\omega ^2}R$ $\therefore$ $F \propto {\omega ^2}$ ($m$ and $R$ are constant)

If angular velocity is doubled force will becomes four times.
