MCQ
The quantity which direction is axial in the circular motion:
  • A
    Angular speed
  • B
    Linear momentum
  • Angular acceleration
  • D
    Linear acceleration

Answer

Correct option: C.
Angular acceleration
(C)
The angular acceleration direction is given along angular velocity or opposite to angular velocity depending upon whether angular velocity magnitude is increasing or decreasing and this direction remains along the axis of circular motion.

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R.$

Assertion $A :$ Moment of inertia of a circular disc of mass $'M'$ and radius $'R'$ about $X, Y$ axes (passing through its plane) and $Z-$axis which is perpendicular to its plane were found to be $I_{x}, I_{y}$ and ${I}_{z}$ respectively. The respective radii of gyration about all the three axes will be the same.

Reason $R$ : A rigid body making rotational motion has fixed mass and shape.
