    If \[{{a}_{r}}\]and\[{{a}_{t}}\] represent radial and tangential accelerations, the motion of a panicle will be uniformly circular if:

    A)  \[{{a}_{r}}=0\]and \[{{a}_{t}}=0\]           

    B)         \[{{a}_{r}}=0\]but\[{{a}_{t}}\ne 0\]

    C)         \[{{a}_{r}}=0\]but\[{{a}_{t}}=0\]             

    D)         \[{{a}_{r}}\ne 0\]and\[{{a}_{t}}\ne 0\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    (i) If \[{{a}_{r}}=0\]and \[{{a}_{r}}=0\], then motion is uniform translatory. (ii) If \[{{a}_{r}}=0\] but\[a\ne 0\], then motion is accelerated translatory. (iii)If \[{{a}_{r}}\ne 0\] but\[{{a}_{r}}=0\], then motion is uniform circular. (iv) If \[{{a}_{r}}\ne 0\] and\[{{a}_{r}}\ne 0\], then motion is a non-uniform circular.
