MCQ
For a particle in a uniformly accelerated circular motion
  • A
    velocity is radial and acceleration has both radial and transverse components
  • velocity is transverse and acceleration has both radial and transverse components
  • C
    velocity is radial and acceleration is transverse only
  • D
    velocity is transverse and acceleration is radial only

Answer

Correct option: B.
velocity is transverse and acceleration has both radial and transverse components
b
For a uniformly accelerated motion there are two acceleration, one along the radius called radial acceleration and another along tangent called tangential acceleration. Velocity is directed along the tangent
