MCQ
Figure below shows a body of mass $M$ moving with the uniform speed on a circular path of radius, $R$. What is the change in acceleration in going from ${P_1}$ to ${P_2}$
  • A
    Zero
  • B
    ${v^2}/2R$
  • C
    $2{v^2}/R$
  • $\frac{{{v^2}}}{R} \times \sqrt 2 $

Answer

Correct option: D.
$\frac{{{v^2}}}{R} \times \sqrt 2 $
d
(d) $\Delta a = 2a\sin \left( {\frac{\theta }{2}} \right)$= $2a \times \sin 45^\circ $$ = \sqrt 2 a = \sqrt 2 \frac{{{v^2}}}{R}$
