QNEET-2016-Ph-1091: NEET 2016 Physics - Class 11 NEET-2016-Ph-1091 Solution: A particle of mass 10 g moves along a circle of radius 6.4 cm…
A particle of mass 10 g moves along a circle of radius 6.4 cm with a constant tangential acceleration. What is the magnitude of this acceleration if the kinetic energy of the particle becomes equal to by the end of the second revolution after the beginning of the motion?
Multiple Choice Options
- A 0.18 m/s 2
- B 0.2 m/s 2
- C 0.1 m/s 2
- D 0.15 m/s 2
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
Given: Mass of particle, M = 10g = 10 1000 k g
radius of circle R = 6.4 cm
Kinetic energy E of particle = 8 _ 10 �4 J
acceleration a t = ?
1 2 m v 2 = E _ 1 2 ( 10 1000 ) v 2 = 8 _ 10 _ 4
_ v 2 = 16 _ 10 _ 2
_ v = 4 _ 10 _ 1 = 0.4 m / s
Now, using
v 2 = u 2 + 2a t s (s = 4 � R)
( 0.4 ) 2 = 0 2 + 2 a t ( 4 _ 22 7 _ 6.4 100 )
_ a t = ( 0.4 ) 2 _ 7 _ 100 8 _ 22 _ 6.4 = 0.1 m / s 2
