A cyclist is riding with a speed of 27 km/h. As he approaches a circular turn on the road of radius 80 m, he applies brakes and reduces his speed at the constant rate of 0.50 m/s every second. What is the magnitude and direction of the net acceleration of the cyclist on the circular turn?
A uniform metre rule of mass 100g is balanced on a fulcrum at mark 40cm by suspending an unknown mass m at the mark 20cm.
To which side the rule will tilt if the mass m is moved to the mark 10cm ?
Name the force required for uniform circular motion. State its direction.
If a particle moves with uniform speed then its tangential acceleration will be ______.
A particle performs uniform circular motion in a horizontal plane. The radius of the circle is 8 cm. The centripetal force acting on the particle is 15 N. Its kinetic energy is ____________.
The given graph represents motion with ______ speed.
For a particle performing uniform circular motion, choose the correct statement(s) from the following:
- Magnitude of particle velocity (speed) remains constant.
- Particle velocity remains directed perpendicular to radius vector.
- Direction of acceleration keeps changing as particle moves.
- Angular momentum is constant in magnitude but direction keeps changing.
Earth can be thought of as a sphere of radius 6400 km. Any object (or a person) is performing circular motion around the axis of earth due to earth’s rotation (period 1 day). What is acceleration of object on the surface of the earth (at equator) towards its centre? what is it at latitude θ? How does these accelerations compare with g = 9.8 m/s2?
Earth also moves in circular orbit around sun once every year with on orbital radius of 1.5 × 1011 m. What is the acceleration of earth (or any object on the surface of the earth) towards the centre of the sun? How does this acceleration compare with g = 9.8 m/s2?
Why is uniform circular motion said to be accelerated?
