उत्तर १

Given: v = 50 m/s, t = 40 s, s = 2πr

To find: acceleration (a)

Formulae: 

i. v = `"s"/"t"`
ii. a = `"v"^2/"r"`

Calculation: From formula (i),

`50 = (2pi"r")/40`

∴ r = `(50 xx 40)/(2pi)`

∴ r = `1000/pi` cm

From formula (ii),

a = `"v"^2/"r" = 50^2/(1000//pi)`

a = `(5pi)/2 = 7.85 "m"//"s"^2`

The magnitude of acceleration of the car is 7.85 m/s2.

उत्तर २

Given: v = 50 m/s, t = 40 s,

To find: acceleration (a)

Formula: a = rω2 = vω

Calculation: From formula,

a = vω

`= "v"(("2"pi)/"t")`

`= 50((2 xx 3.142)/40)`

`= 5/2 xx 3.142`

∴ a = 7.85 m/s
